300-445 Question 229
Select 3You are tasked with configuring alert rules for an enterprise network monitoring system to improve the end-user experience. The organization has reported issues related to high CPU utilization on end-user devices, unstable connections when switching from Wi-Fi to wired networks, and inconsistent VPN performance. Which of the following alert rules should you configure to proactively address these concerns?
- A
Set an alert for CPU utilization exceeding 85% on end-user devices.
- B
Configure an alert for a drop in throughput when switching from Wi-Fi to a wired connection.
- C
Create an alert for high latency on VPN connections exceeding 200ms.
- D
Set an alert for browser tabs consuming more than 50% of system memory.
- E
Create an alert for weak Wi-Fi signal strength below -70 dBm.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, C
Explanation
The correct answers address the specific concerns raised in the scenario: high CPU utilization, connectivity issues during Wi-Fi to wired transitions, and VPN performance. These are critical to maintaining a seamless end-user experience and align with the objective of configuring alert rules for network assurance.
- A. Correct.
High CPU utilization on end-user devices can directly impact productivity and application performance. Setting an alert for CPU usage exceeding a threshold helps identify and mitigate the issue before it becomes critical.
- B. Correct.
A drop in throughput during a transition between Wi-Fi and wired networks can indicate misconfigurations or hardware issues. Monitoring this ensures smooth connectivity for users.
- C. Correct.
High latency on VPN connections can cause delays in accessing critical resources for remote users. Setting an alert for latency exceeding an acceptable threshold helps ensure VPN performance.
- D. Incorrect.
While browser behavior is important, monitoring individual browser tabs consuming memory is not directly tied to network assurance or end-user experience in this context.
- E. Incorrect.
Weak Wi-Fi signal strength can impact connectivity, but it is not explicitly mentioned as a priority issue in the scenario provided.
