Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Associate — Question 66

Scenario: A Ctrix Administrator currently manages a Citrix ADC environment in a retail company that is growing quickly and may soon double its volume of business. Currently, a Citrix ADC MPX 5550, which handles web and SSL transactions, is in place, but is close to full capacity. Due to the forecasted growth increase, the administrator needs to find a cost effective solution.
What can the administrator recommend to management in order to cost effectively handle the growth?

Answer options

• A. Another MPX 5550 appliance
• B. Performance hardware upgrade to Citrix ADC SDX 14100
• C. Perform license upgrade to Citrix ADC MPX 5650
• D. Perform hardware upgrade to Citrix ADC MPX 8005

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because upgrading the license to the Citrix ADC MPX 5650 provides enhanced capabilities without the need for additional hardware investment. Options A and D involve acquiring more hardware, which is not cost-effective, while option B suggests a significant performance upgrade that may not be necessary given the constraints.
