What is the primary function of the Interface Monitor?

The primary function of the Interface Monitor is to allow specification of which interfaces to display. This tool is used to manage and oversee the various interfaces within the system, enabling users to select specific ones for monitoring. By customizing the view based on selected interfaces, users can efficiently track performance, troubleshoot issues, and gain insights tailored to their immediate needs. This functionality is particularly important in environments where multiple interfaces might be active, as it provides a focused approach to monitoring without unnecessary clutter from irrelevant data.

The other options, while related to system management, do not accurately reflect the primary role of the Interface Monitor. Configuring firewall settings, analyzing user activities, and scheduling backups are distinct functions that pertain to other areas of system administration and security management.
