CompTIA Network+ Question C-21

It has been determined by network operations that there is a severe bottleneck on the company’s mesh topology network. The field technician has chosen to use log management and found that one router is making routing decisions slower than others on the network. This is an example of which of the following?

A. Network device power issues
B. Network device CPU issues
C. Storage area network issues
D. Delayed responses from RADIUS

Correct Answer: B
