A company is deploying BIG-IP Virtual Edition (VE) in AWS to handle SSL/TLS termination for a web application. They expect peak traffic of 2 Gbps with a high percentage of new TLS connections. The current instance type is m5.large (2 vCPU, 8 GiB RAM). During load testing, the BIG-IP VE CPU utilization exceeds 90% and TLS handshake latency increases. Which instance change is most appropriate to address the bottleneck?

Move to a compute-optimized instance with more vCPUs, such as c5.xlarge

Reduce the number of new TLS connections by increasing the session cache timeout

Move to a memory-optimized instance, such as r5.large

Enable BIG-IP VE clustering to distribute TLS processing across multiple instances

A company is deploying BIG-IP VE in AWS for a web application that experiences variable traffic patterns. They want to ensure that the BIG-IP VE can handle peak traffic without manual intervention. Which approach is most appropriate?

Use a smaller instance and rely on the cloud provider's network to handle the traffic

Use AWS Auto Scaling to add BIG-IP VE instances during peak traffic

Deploy a single large instance that can handle the peak traffic

Deploy multiple BIG-IP VE instances in an active-standby pair and manually failover during peak

To achieve high availability for BIG-IP VE in a cloud deployment, what is the minimum requirement regarding instance placement?

Deploy both instances in different regions

Deploy both instances in the same region but in the same zone

Deploy the active and standby instances in different availability zones

Deploy both instances in the same availability zone
