An orchestration workflow must create a pool, then add pool members, then create a virtual server that references the pool. The workflow uses F5 REST API calls. What is the best practice to ensure the virtual server is created only after the pool is fully configured?

Poll the pool's selfLink until it returns a 200 status, then proceed to create the virtual server.

Add a fixed sleep of 5 seconds after creating the pool before creating the virtual server.

Use a single API call that creates the pool, members, and virtual server atomically.

Create the virtual server first, then create the pool and members afterward.

A script that automates BIG-IP configuration is returning HTTP 401 Unauthorized for every API call. The script uses token-based authentication. What is the most likely cause and solution?

The token has expired; obtain a new token and retry the request.

The API endpoint is incorrect; use the correct endpoint for the resource.

The request body is malformed; validate the JSON syntax.

The BIG-IP version does not support the API; upgrade the device.
