A network engineer is troubleshooting a router that is experiencing intermittent packet loss. The engineer checks the logs and sees that an EEM applet is being triggered frequently. The applet is configured to run a script that modifies the routing table. The engineer suspects the applet is causing the packet loss. What should the engineer do to verify the root cause?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Temporarily disable the EEM applet and monitor the packet loss.
To verify if the EEM applet is causing the packet loss, the engineer should temporarily disable the applet and monitor the network for any improvement in packet loss.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Check the EEM applet's script for errors.
Why it's wrong here
Incorrect because this does not directly correlate the applet's execution with packet loss; disabling the applet is a more direct test.
- ✗
Use the 'show event manager statistics' command to see how often the applet is triggered.
Why it's wrong here
Incorrect because this only shows frequency, not whether it causes packet loss.
- ✓
Temporarily disable the EEM applet and monitor the packet loss.
Why this is correct
Correct because disabling the applet and observing if packet loss stops confirms the applet as the cause.
- ✗
Increase the logging level to debug to see more details.
Why it's wrong here
Incorrect because this adds overhead and does not directly isolate the cause.
