CompTIA Linux+ XK0-006 (V8) Practice Question

A network engineer is planning how the monitoring platform will collect environmental data from several rack-mounted switches running Linux-based firmware. The design must:

  • Avoid periodic polling and minimize bandwidth
  • Use the standard MIB object identifiers already supported by the monitoring software
  • Allow the monitoring server to listen passively on UDP port 162 for incoming messages

Which data acquisition method on the switches BEST meets these requirements?

  • Configure the switches to send SNMP trap notifications.

  • Install a Prometheus node exporter agent to push metrics.

  • Set up agentless SNMP polling using periodic GET requests.

  • Create HTTPS webhook callbacks to the monitoring server.
