CompTIA Network+ N10-008 Practice Question

Answer Description

The correct answer is 'Utilization rate of a network interface,' which refers to the proportion of the network's capacity being used for send/receive traffic and is crucial for identifying potential bottlenecks. A high utilization rate may indicate that the network is reaching its capacity and could become congested, leading to increased latency and packet loss. In contrast, 'Collision rate' is associated with network problems on Ethernet networks operating in half-duplex mode, 'Broadcast storm ratio' is related to the excessive presence of broadcast traffic on the network which can lead to performance issues, and 'Packet forwarding rate' generally measures how quickly a network device such as a router or switch can forward packets, not the proportion of bandwidth currently being utilized.
