Citrix ADC 13 Advanced Topics – Security, Management and Optimization — Question 51

Scenario: A Citrix ADC MPX is using one of four available 10G ports. A Citrix Administrator discovers a traffic bottleneck at the Citrix ADC.
What can the administrator do to increase bandwidth on the Citrix ADC?

Answer options

• A. Purchase another Citrix ADC MPX appliance.
• B. Plug another 10G Citrix ADC port into the router.
• C. Add two more 10G Citrix ADC ports to the network and configure VLAN.
• D. Add another 10G Citrix ADC port to the switch, and configure Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP).

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because adding another 10G port and enabling LACP allows for increased bandwidth through link aggregation, effectively combining multiple connections into a single logical link. Option A does not address the existing bottleneck directly, while B and C also fail to enhance the current port's capacity without proper configuration and aggregation.
