Citrix ADC 13 Advanced Topics – Security, Management and Optimization — Question 89

Scenario: A Citrix Administrator is configuring a Citrix ADC high availability (HA) pair with an existing primary Citrix ADC with all resources configured. The administrator adds the secondary Citrix ADC in HA and discovers that the configuration on the existing primary was removed and is now the secondary Citrix ADC in the HA pair.

Which two configurations could the administrator have used to prevent this from happening? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Set the primary Citrix ADC to stay primary in the Configure HA Node settings.
• B. Set the secondary Citrix ADC to stay secondary in the Configure HA Node settings.
• C. Enable HA monitoring on all secondary device interfaces.
• D. Enable HA monitoring on all primary device interfaces.

Correct answer: A, B

Explanation

The correct options are A and B because setting the primary ADC to stay primary and the secondary ADC to stay secondary ensures that their roles are preserved, preventing any unexpected configuration transfer. Options C and D do not address the role assignment, which is critical in maintaining the intended configuration during the HA setup.
