Explanation

The 'tail' command on the Cisco WSA CLI streams a log file in real time, displaying new log entries as they are written - similar to 'tail -f' in Linux. This is essential for live troubleshooting, as the administrator can watch transactions being processed, identify errors, and correlate events as they happen. The 'grep' command (A) is used to search for patterns within log files but does not stream in real time. 'nslookup' (B) and 'dig' (C) are DNS lookup tools used to query DNS records, not for monitoring log files.
