I don’t recall much about shielding or password guessing in this context. I’m pretty sure it’s packet sniffing, though.

I’m a bit confused between packet sniffing and packet filtering. They both seem related, but I think sniffing is the one that involves monitoring.

I remember packet filtering being about controlling traffic, not monitoring it. So, I’m leaning towards packet sniffing too.

I think packet sniffing is the right answer, but I’m not completely sure. It sounds familiar from our last practice quiz.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'll need to think carefully about the principle of least privilege and which role would allow Admin1 to place a lock on NW1 without giving them unnecessary permissions.

Okay, I think I've got this. For the GET request, I'll use option A to retrieve the server profile with 'WEST15' in the name. Then for the update, I'll use option E to replace 'WEST15' with 'LXT14' in the server profile name.

Eavesdropping, that's got to be the answer. Listening in on network traffic is the classic definition of eavesdropping, so I'm going with D.
