I remember practicing right-clicking in the Packet Summary pane, but I’m not confident that it actually shows the profile in use.

I’m a bit confused; I thought you could also check the Preferences for interface info, but I can't recall if that tells you the active profile.

I feel like I've seen a question similar to this before, and I think the Status Bar Profile column is where you can find that info.

I think I remember that the Wireshark Title Bar shows the current profile, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only place to check.

The key here is to look in the right place - the status bar seems like the most logical spot to find the profile info. I'll double-check that during the exam.

Okay, I know the profile setting is important for capturing the right traffic data. I'll make sure to check both the title bar and status bar to confirm the active profile.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I'll have to carefully examine the Wireshark interface to see where the profile information is displayed.
