Browsing to the ESM hostname could give some clues too!

Definitely not C, ping won't show SSL issues.

I vaguely recall that browsing to the ESM hostname could help, but I thought that was more for checking general connectivity rather than SSL issues.

I feel like checking if the Traps service is running is important too, but it doesn't directly tell us about SSL, right?

I think option A makes sense because if the port is closed or not responding, it could indicate an SSL problem. We had a practice question like this!

I remember we talked about using telnet to check connectivity issues, but I'm not entirely sure if it's the best way to test SSL specifically.

Browsing to the ESM hostname from the agent seems like a smart move. That will give us a more direct test of the SSL/TLS connection and see if there are any issues there.

I'm leaning towards the ping command. That will at least tell us if we can reach the ESM server at all, which could help narrow down the problem.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. Checking if the Traps service is running seems like a good first step to me. We should make sure the agent is up and running before looking at the SSL/TLS connection.

I think the telnet command is the way to go here. It should let us test the connection and see if there are any SSL/TLS issues.

Haha, I bet the issue is that the agent is trying to connect to the server using a carrier pigeon. Option C is the answer, clearly!
