• Djournalctl -xu network

Explanation

journalctl -xu network is the correct command to retrieve detailed systemd journal logs for a specific service unit. The -u flag specifies the unit name (e.g., network), and -x adds explanatory catalog messages to help diagnose errors. This gives full log output including error messages, exit codes, and timestamps. systemctl analyze (A) is used to inspect boot performance, not service errors. systemctl info (B) is not a valid systemd subcommand. sysctl -a (C) lists kernel runtime parameters and is unrelated to service unit status or logs.
