To diagnose a problem with a transmission that is being cut off in mid-transmission, you should use a **protocol analyzer**. A protocol analyzer (also known as a packet sniffer) allows you to capture and analyze the data packets being transmitted over the network, helping to identify issues such as connection interruptions, packet loss, or protocol errors.
The other options, such as a port scanner, data sanitizer, and honeypot software, serve different purposes and would not be effective for diagnosing transmission issues.
