Thepacket capture featureinJuniper Mist Cloudallows administrators to remotely capture live network traffic from managed devices such as Access Points (APs) or switches for detailed troubleshooting.
According to theJuniper Mist Network Troubleshooting and Diagnostics Guide:
"Once a packet capture session is stopped or completed, the captured data is saved as a downloadable .pcap file that can be analyzed offline using tools such as Wireshark." This ensures administrators can inspect packet-level details for issues such as authentication failures, DHCP errors, or connectivity drops. The data is stored temporarily and made available through the Mist UI for download before automatic cleanup.
OptionsB,C, andDare incorrect because captured data is not stored permanently in the cloud, does not trigger automated alerts, and is not discarded immediately. The purpose is to make the data accessible foroffline inspection and analysis.
Therefore, the correct answer isA. It is saved as a downloadable capture file for offline inspection.
