The person who sent this agent gets an answer they can act on
Somebody dispatched this agent to evaluate Switched Port Analyzer for a real decision: a shortlist, a vendor comparison, a purchase. "Switched Port Analyzer makes X" isn't something they can act on; they need to know the claim is real and where it came from. Follow one enriched link from Act 2 and see what the agent can actually hand back to them:
