Explanation

This is a performance troubleshooting simulation question that requires analyzing network/server metrics across multiple tabs to diagnose post-power outage issues. The correct approach involves examining CPU/memory utilization on application servers (likely showing resource spikes or degraded hardware post-outage), checking network interface statistics for errors or duplex mismatches, and reviewing wireless access point or DHCP logs for intermittent connectivity issues. Power outages commonly cause NIC autonegotiation failures, UPS-related hardware degradation, or misconfigured devices that rebooted to default settings, all of which explain both the wired performance issues and wireless intermittency simultaneously.
