VCP-VCF Administrator 2024 Question 290
Single answerAn organization using VMware Cloud Foundation has deployed Aria Operations for Networks to monitor their network infrastructure. The administrator notices degraded application performance and needs to identify potential network bottlenecks. Which feature in Aria Operations for Networks can assist in diagnosing the issue?
- A
Flow-Based Application Discovery
- B
Network Map
- C
Path Analysis
- D
Intent-Based Networking
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Path Analysis in Aria Operations for Networks is a powerful feature that enables administrators to trace the flow of traffic across the network, providing insights into potential bottlenecks or misconfigurations causing performance degradation. This makes it the most suitable tool for diagnosing network-related issues affecting application performance.
- A. Incorrect.
Flow-Based Application Discovery is used for identifying and mapping application dependencies, but it does not specifically address diagnosing network bottlenecks.
- B. Incorrect.
Network Map provides a visual overview of the network topology, but it is not a diagnostic tool for identifying specific bottlenecks.
- C. Correct.
Path Analysis allows administrators to trace and analyze the network path between source and destination, identifying potential bottlenecks or issues affecting application performance.
- D. Incorrect.
Intent-Based Networking is a proactive approach to network management, ensuring that the network meets predefined intents, but it does not directly diagnose performance issues.
