A network technician suspects that the advertised bandwidth is not being fully delivered to a newly installed branch office. Which device should the technician use to verify the actual bandwidth available to this office?
The speed tester is the correct choice for directly measuring and verifying the bandwidth available at a specific network segment or connection point. It allows technicians to monitor the actual throughput and compare it against the expected values, which is crucial for ensuring that network services meet performance criteria. The other options listed do not provide direct measurement of link bandwidth, which is essential in this scenario.
