F5 BIG-IP LTM Specialist: Maintain and Troubleshoot — Question 15

An LTM device is load balancing SIP traffic. An LTM Specialist notices that sometimes the SIP request is being load balanced to the same server as the initial connection.
Which setting in the UDP profile will make the LTM device more evenly distribute the SIP traffic?

Answer options

• A. Enable Datagram LB
• B. Disable Datagram LB
• C. Set Timeout to Indefinite
• D. Set Timeout to Immediate

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Enabling Datagram LB allows the LTM device to more effectively utilize its resources by balancing the load of SIP requests across multiple servers, rather than directing them all to the same server. Disabling Datagram LB would worsen the load distribution, while setting timeouts does not influence the load balancing behavior directly.
