CA protocol analyzer, because it can be used to view the spectrum energy of non-compliant 802.11 devices, which is always different from compliant devices.

Hold up, did someone say 'spectrum energy'? Sounds like we're trying to detect disturbances in the Force or something. But seriously, Option B is the clear winner here.

I'm with Allene on this one. Option C is just silly, the protocol analyzer can't do that. Definitely going with B, the spectrum analyzer is the way to go.

Haha, a protocol analyzer to check the 'spectrum energy'? Really? I'll stick with Option B, the spectrum analyzer seems like the right tool for the job.

That's true, a protocol analyzer can report on security settings and compliance.

But wouldn't a protocol analyzer be better to check security settings?

I'm more inclined towards D. A protocol analyzer can give us the full scoop on those rogue 802.11 devices, including their security settings and compliance issues.
