John is the administrator of a network that contains a Windows Server 2003 computer named Globe 1 that has the DNS and WINS services installed. 400 Windows 2000 Professional computers connect to Globe 1 to access file and print resources.

Administrators report that network traffic has increased and that response times for requests for network resources on Globe 1 have increased. What should John do to confirm that Globe 1 is receiving requests for resources through NetBIOS broadcasts?
  1. Run the tracert command on Globe 1.
  2. Use Network Monitor to capture traffic between Globe 1 and Globe 2.
  3. Monitor Event Viewer for Net Logon error or warning events.
  4. Use Network Monitor to capture traffic between Globe 1 and all client computers.
Explanation
Answer -D -John should use Network Monitor to capture traffice between Globe 1 and all client computers to confirm that Globe 1 is receiving requests for resources through NetBios broadcasts.

Key Takeaway: Network Monitor captures and displays network packets at the byte-level. Viewing and capturing filters can be configured to view or capture only the traffic that you are interested in. You can create a view filter by specifying source, destination IP address, or protocol. Capture filters can be triggered by a pattern match. In this case, if you capture traffic between Globe 1 and all client computers then you will be able to view the proper information to confirm that Globe 1 is receiving requests for resources through NetBIOS broadcasts.
