F5 Application Delivery Fundamentals — Question 122

You have a pool of servers that need to be tested. All of the servers but one should be tested every 10 seconds, but one is slower and should only be tested every
20 seconds. How do you proceed?

Answer options

• A. It cannot be done. All monitors test every five seconds.
• B. It can be done, but will require assigning monitors to each pool member.
• C. It cannot be done. All of the members of a pool must be tested at the same frequency.
• D. It can be done by assigning one monitor to the pool and a different monitor to the slower pool member.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because it allows for different testing frequencies by assigning separate monitors to each group. Option A is incorrect as it falsely states that all monitors test at the same interval. Option B, while somewhat correct, does not specify the use of different monitors, which is crucial for this scenario. Option C is also incorrect as it misrepresents the flexibility of monitor assignments.
