Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

DHCP probe
Why it's wrong here

Why it's wrong here
Device Sensor is a feature on switches that collects endpoint data, but it does not directly capture HTTP User-Agent.
