Zusammenfassung:A device, of a cloud computing environment, receives an instruction to create a virtual packet analyzer from a user device associated with a user. The device creates the virtual packet analyzer in the device based on the instruction, and receives a packet provided in a portion of the cloud computing environment associated with the user. The virtual packet analyzer determines information associated with the packet, and determines whether to duplicate the packet based on the information. The virtual packet analyzer processes the packet based on whether the packet is to be duplicated. A duplicate packet of the packet is generated when it is determined that the packet is to be duplicated, and is transmitted to another device to identify or resolve a problem within the portion. The packet is transmitted to a destination of the packet when it is determined that the packet is not to be duplicated.
