   A PowerScale cluster has a link aggregation group with four 10 GbE links. The administrator wants to ensure that if one link fails, the remaining links continue to carry traffic without interruption. Which configuration is required?

   • AEnable LACP on the aggregation group, which automatically removes failed links and redistributes traffic.
   • BConfigure jumbo frames, which reduce the number of packets and thus the chance of link failure.
   • CEnable Forward Error Correction, which corrects bit errors and prevents link failure.
   • DUse Round Robin load balancing, which sends packets to the next available link in sequence.

   A PowerScale cluster has a link aggregation group with four 10 GbE links. The network administrator wants to ensure that if one link fails, traffic is redistributed to the remaining links without manual intervention. Which feature is specifically designed to handle this?

   • ARound Robin load balancing, which sends each packet to the next available link in sequence.
   • BForward Error Correction, which corrects bit errors and prevents link failure.
   • CJumbo frames, which reduce the number of packets and thus the chance of link failure.
   • DLACP with failover, which automatically removes the failed link from the aggregation and redistributes traffic.
