Check Point Certified Security Expert (CCSE) R81 — Question 124

In ClusterXL Load Sharing Multicast Mode:

Answer options

• A. every member of the cluster received all of the packets sent to the cluster IP address.
• B. only the secondary member receives packets sent to the cluster IP address.
• C. packets sent to the cluster IP address are distributed equally between all members of the cluster.
• D. only the primary member received packets sent to the cluster IP address.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because, in ClusterXL Load Sharing Multicast Mode, every cluster member receives all packets sent to the cluster IP address, allowing for full redundancy and load sharing. Options B and D are incorrect as they imply that only one member receives the packets, which defeats the purpose of load sharing. Option C is also wrong because it suggests that packets are distributed equally rather than all being received by each member.
