To see the real packets going through the Cisco FTD device and the Snort detection actions as part of the output, the engineer should use the following command:
capture-traffic <capture_name> trace snort
This command will capture traffic and display the real packets along with the Snort detection actions.
If the engineer is already using this command, but only the packets are being displayed, the issue may be that the trace is not specified. To resolve this issue, the engineer should use option A: specify the trace using the -T option after the capture-traffic command.
The engineer should add -T snort or -T raw to the end of the command. -T snort specifies that the output should include Snort intrusion events, while -T raw specifies that the output should include the raw packets.
Therefore, the correct answer to this question is:
A. Specify the trace using the -T option after the capture-traffic command.
