Contoso Ltd has a hybrid environment with on-premises servers and Azure Virtual Machines. They want to monitor the network flow between the on-premises servers and Azure VMs to detect any unusual activity. Which tool should they use to capture and analyze the network traffic between these environments?
Answer Options
A
Use Azure Monitor to create a log query to capture network traffic between on-premises and Azure environments.
B
Enable Network Watcher and create a packet capture session between the on-premises servers and Azure VMs.
C
Deploy a third-party network traffic analysis tool into the on-premises environment to capture traffic to and from Azure VMs.
D
Configure Azure Security Center to monitor network traffic between on-premises and Azure environments.
Correct Answer
B: Enable Network Watcher and create a packet capture session between the on-premises servers and Azure VMs.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because Network Watcher can capture and analyze network traffic between on-premises and Azure environments. Option A is incorrect as it refers to Azure Monitor, which is used for monitoring metrics and logs but not for capturing network traffic. Option C is incorrect as it suggests using a third-party tool, which is not recommended for Azure environments. Option D is incorrect as it mentions Azure Security Center, which focuses on security assessments rather than network traffic analysis.
