Explanation

In order to see replication errors from multiple computers in 1 place, we should setup an Event Log subscription. We could customize the subscription so that only Event IDs relevant to replication are captured, and each domain controller could be setup to forward these events to the collector computer. Capturing data in Network Monitor will allow inspection of data packets passed between servers, but will not easily provide us useful information to determine when replication has failed. It would be a very involved process to find and obtain information that anything has happened, let alone what may have happened. The Active Directory Diagnostics DCS collects general information about the performance of AD. The System Performance DCS collects general information about the computer's performance. Neither of these will give us information about replication.
