Description

Now that you have gotten this far, it is time to decide where do you want to watch and have greater control of the traffic moving across your network. Where is it most important? Is there such a thing? Why is one area on your network more important than another? Or is it?

You will learn new ways to watch traffic (and to control traffic if needed) during this phase of your project.
