F5 BIG-IP LTM Specialist: Maintain and Troubleshoot — Question 22
An LTM Specialist is troubleshooting an issue with a new virtual server. When connecting through the virtual server, clients receive the message "Unable to connect" in the browser, although connections directly to the pool member show the application is functioning correctly. The LTM device configuration is: ltm virtual /Common/vs_https { destination /Common/10.10.1.110:443 ip-protocol udp mask 255.255.255.255 pool /Common/pool_https profiles {
/Common/udp { }
}
translate-address enabled
translate-port enabled
vlans-disabled
}
ltm pool /Common/pool_https {
members {
/Common/172.16.20.1:443 {
address 172.16.20.1
}
}
}
What issue is the LTM Specialist experiencing?
Answer options
- A. The virtual server is disabled on all VLANs.
- B. The pool member is marked down by a monitor.
- C. The pool member is marked down administratively.
- D. The virtual server is configured for the incorrect protocol.
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is D because the LTM configuration shows that the virtual server is using UDP as the ip-protocol, which is not suitable for HTTPS traffic that requires TCP. The other options are incorrect because there is no indication that the virtual server is disabled on VLANs (A), the pool member status isn't altered by a monitor (B), and there's no information suggesting that the pool member is administratively down (C).
