Citrix Access Control Administration — Question 129

Scenario: While using the GUI, a Citrix Administrator discovers that a Citrix ADC MPX appliance is unresponsive. The administrator needs to force a core dump for analysis and restart the appliance.

What can the administrator do to accomplish this?

Answer options

• A. Use the reset button on the front of the appliance.
• B. Connect to a USB port to issue a restart command.
• C. Use the non-maskable interrupt (NMI) button on the back of the appliance.
• D. Turn off the appliance using the power button.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because using the non-maskable interrupt (NMI) button allows for a core dump and restart of the appliance when it is unresponsive. Options A and D may not provide the necessary core dump functionality, and option B does not apply as USB ports are not designed for issuing restart commands.
