What should you do?

Proposed answer
  • A. From VM1, run netstat.

Yes, correct. The link provided says that Performance Analysis let's you do an Azure Files Analysis, which includes a network trace: "Azure Files analysis Includes all checks in the performance analysis, and captures a network trace and SMB counters."

To perform a network trace on VM1, especially in the context of Azure virtual machines and considering the need to diagnose network issues possibly caused by a new security baseline, the most suitable option among those provided would be: Option D: From the Azure portal, configure the Performance diagnostics settings for VM1. The Azure Performance Diagnostics extension is a powerful tool for diagnosing and identifying performance issues with Azure VMs. It allows you to gather a wide range of performance data, including network traces, which can be invaluable in situations where you suspect networking issues. Configuring Performance Diagnostics on VM1 through the Azure portal will enable you to collect the necessary data to understand what's causing the application to become unresponsive.
