When performing performance baselining on Server 1, you notice that a large number of concurrently connected users at any given moment. This is causing performance problems on Server 1. You want to run Network Monitor on this server and capture all packets sent to Server 1.

But packet headers need to be captured in order to reduce the size of the captured data. If a large number of packets are captured, the packets must be retained on the server. Captured packets must not overwrite previously captured packets. Which of the following should you do to configure Network Monitor?
  1. Configure the Network Monitor display filters.
  2. Configure the Network Monitor capture filters.
  3. Decrease the Network Monitor buffer size setting.
  4. Increase the Network Monitor buffer size setting.
Explanation
Answer - D - You should increase the Network Monitor buffer size setting.

Key Takeaway: The default buffer size setting is 1 MB. You should reconfigure the buffer size from the Capture Buffer Settings dialog box to increase the Network Monitor buffer size setting from the default of 1 MB. This would result in the buffer being less likely to be full. Hence data will not be overwritten. The frame size setting should be decreased from its default setting of 65,472 bytes so that additional frames can be stored prior to the buffer becoming full.
