F5 BIG-IP LTM Specialist: Maintain and Troubleshoot — Question 130

An LTM Specialist has just manually failed the active LTM device over to the standby LTM device. The LTM Specialist notices the newly active LTM device is
NOT currently receiving traffic. The LTM Specialist verifies the newly active device is responding to ARP but still no traffic is hitting the virtual servers. The LTM
Specialist also notices that the virtual servers eventually start responding.
What should be added to the configuration to resolve the problem?

Answer options

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, MAC masquerading, as it allows the new active device to use the same MAC address as the previous active device, ensuring seamless traffic flow. The other options do not directly address the issue of traffic not being routed to the new active device, which is crucial in this scenario.
