Your paper should address the following questions:
What is a network diagnostics tool and how it is used by organizations?
How do your selected tools work?
Which main criteria should be used as part of this evaluation and tool selection?
How are your selected tools similar? How do they differ? Create a table that compares each tool in terms of
functionality, advantages, disadvantages, etc.
Which tools are most effective? Justify your choices.
