CompTIA Security+ (SY0-601) — Question 319

A security administrator needs to add fault tolerance and load balancing to the connection from the file server to the backup storage. Which of the following is the best choice to achieve this objective?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Multipath is the optimal solution as it allows for multiple connections to the backup storage, providing both fault tolerance and load balancing. RAID focuses on data redundancy and performance but does not specifically address load balancing or connection management. Segmentation is related to network organization and does not impact connection reliability or load distribution. 802.11 refers to wireless networking standards, which are not applicable in this context.
