An organization seeks to implement a network monitoring technology that actively collects and analyzes network traffic flows to identify trends and potential bottlenecks. Which method would be MOST effective for this purpose?
Log aggregation
Flow data
Packet capture
SNMP
Flow data is the most effective method for collecting and analyzing traffic to identify trends and potential bottlenecks. This technology summarizes information about network flows (such as NetFlow, sFlow, or IPFIX), providing visibility into traffic patterns, volumes, and paths that are critical for trend analysis and bottleneck identification. SNMP, while useful for general device monitoring and management, does not inherently provide detailed insight into traffic patterns. Log aggregation centralizes logs but does not analyze traffic flows, and packet capture is generally used for granular forensic analysis rather than broad trend monitoring.
