Sniffer profile is useful, but not for trunks.

I recall TCP dump being more for analyzing packets rather than capturing on trunks. I think SPAN is the best option here.

I’m a bit confused; I thought sFlow was for sampling traffic rather than capturing it completely.

I think the answer might be SPAN, but I'm not completely sure. I remember it being used for monitoring traffic on specific interfaces.

I'm pretty confident the answer is Sniffer profile. That's the feature specifically designed for capturing traffic on FortiSwitch interfaces, including trunks and management ports.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. SPAN is for port mirroring, sFlow is for sampling, and TCPdump is a general packet capture tool. That leaves Sniffer profile as the most likely option for capturing traffic on trunks and management interfaces.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know SPAN is used for port mirroring, but I'm not sure if that applies to trunks and management interfaces as well. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Okay, let's think this through. An effective IT Service Continuity plan needs to address potential points of failure, so C seems like the best option. But I also want to make sure I'm not missing anything else important, like backup sites or recovery procedures.

I'm torn between SPAN and sFlow. Both seem like they could work, but SPAN just has that extra bit of flexibility that I think is crucial here.
