Microsoft Azure Administrator — Question 88

You have five Azure virtual machines that run Windows Server 2016. The virtual machines are configured as web servers.

You have an Azure load balancer named LB1 that provides load balancing services for the virtual machines.

You need to ensure that visitors are serviced by the same web server for each request.

What should you configure?

Answer options

• A. Floating IP (direct server return) to Enabled
• B. Idle Time-out (minutes) to 20
• C. a health probe
• D. Session persistence to Client IP

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as configuring session persistence to Client IP ensures that requests from the same client are directed to the same web server, enhancing user experience. The other options do not achieve this requirement; for example, enabling Floating IP is not relevant to session persistence, and configuring a health probe is related to monitoring server health rather than maintaining client connections.
