Why each option
NetFlow and NBAR are the two Cisco IOS embedded tools capable of baselining existing application traffic by identifying and measuring flows.
Syslog is an event and error logging facility used for fault management, not for measuring or baselining application traffic flows.
AutoQoS consumes traffic baseline data to generate QoS policies; it does not itself perform the baselining.
NetFlow records detailed statistics about every IP flow traversing a router or switch, making it ideal for baselining application traffic volumes, patterns, and top talkers over time.
SNMP polls device MIBs for interface counters and status, but does not provide application-level traffic identification or baselining.
NBAR (Network-Based Application Recognition) performs deep packet inspection to identify specific applications, enabling accurate classification and baselining of application-layer traffic.
Logging is a general system event recording mechanism and does not analyze or baseline application traffic.
