Explanation

In a hierarchical network topology (Access, Distribution, Core layers), each layer has distinct functions: the Access layer connects end users to the network, the Distribution layer performs fast switching and aggregates traffic flows from customers, and the Core layer provides redundant architectures within data centers for high availability and backbone connectivity. The arrangement maps each function to its appropriate layer based on the role that layer plays in the overall network design. 'Monitors network traffic' is a management/security function not specifically tied to a single topology layer in this context.
