Understanding Cisco Cybersecurity Operations Fundamentals (CBROPS) — Question 26

Which technology should be used to implement a solution that makes routing decisions based on HTTP header, uniform resource identifier, and SSL session ID attributes?

Answer options

• A. AWS
• B. IIS
• C. Load balancer
• D. Proxy server

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Load balancer, as it is specifically designed to make routing decisions based on various attributes like HTTP headers and SSL session IDs. AWS and IIS are platforms that may host applications but do not inherently manage routing based on these attributes, while a Proxy server primarily acts as an intermediary and does not perform load balancing based on the specified criteria.
