Which menu can start, stop, or restart capture and edit capture filters?

• A. Edit
• B. Go
• C. File
• D. Capture

Answer: (D)

The ability to control a live traffic capture—starting, stopping, and restarting—as well as to edit the capture filters belongs in the Capture menu. This menu is specifically designed for all capture-related actions, giving you direct access to begin collecting packets, end the session, reinitialize the capture, and adjust which packets are captured via capture filters. Capture filters are applied at capture time to limit the data you collect, helping manage data volume and performance, which is why editing them happens in the same area where you control the capture itself. Other menus handle different tasks (editing text or filters, navigating, or file operations) and don’t centralize capture controls. So the Capture menu is the correct place for these tasks.
