Yes, the provided solution meets the goal of inspecting all the network traffic from VM1 to VM2 for a period of three hours.

Azure Network Watcher is a monitoring and diagnostic service that provides tools to monitor, diagnose, and gain insights into the network performance and health of resources in Azure. One of the tools provided by Azure Network Watcher is the packet capture feature, which allows capturing network traffic to and from a specific virtual machine or subnet.

By creating a packet capture in Azure Network Watcher, the user can capture and inspect network traffic between the two virtual machines (VM1 and VM2) hosted in the VNet1 virtual network for a specified time period of three hours. The captured data can then be downloaded and analyzed to identify any issues or anomalies in the network traffic.

Therefore, the provided solution meets the stated goal and is a valid approach to inspecting all the network traffic from VM1 to VM2 for a period of three hours.
