   How does an ADC help mitigate Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks?

   • ABy encrypting all traffic to prevent attackers from seeing it
   • BBy absorbing and filtering malicious traffic before it reaches the application servers
   • CBy compressing traffic to reduce the impact of the attack
   • DBy redirecting traffic to a backup data center

   A company has two data centers, one primary and one disaster recovery (DR) site. The primary site is preferred for all users, but if it becomes unavailable, traffic must automatically fail over to the DR site. The administrator wants to minimize latency for users while ensuring automatic failover. Which GSLB configuration best meets these requirements?

   • AUse a preferred topology that directs users to the primary site, with a fallback to the DR site when the primary is down
   • BUse round-robin load balancing across both sites
   • CUse session persistence to keep users on the primary site
   • DUse a static DNS record pointing to the primary site

   What is session persistence in the context of an ADC?

   • AThe ADC stores session data in a database
   • BThe ADC caches session data to speed up access
   • CThe ADC ensures that a user's requests are sent to the same server during a session
   • DThe ADC encrypts session data to protect it

   An organization runs a customer-facing portal and an internal reporting application on the same set of servers. During business hours, the reporting application generates heavy traffic that degrades the portal's response times. The ADC is used to manage both applications. What should the administrator configure on the ADC to ensure the portal receives priority over the reporting traffic?

   • AAdditional health monitors for the reporting app
   • BTraffic shaping and prioritization policies
   • CSession persistence for the portal
   • DSSL offloading for both applications

   An organization runs a web application that is critical for business operations. During peak hours, the application experiences high latency. The network team suspects that non-critical traffic (e.g., software updates) is consuming bandwidth. The administrator wants to ensure the critical application always gets the bandwidth it needs, while allowing non-critical traffic to use only leftover bandwidth. Which ADC feature should be configured?

   • ACaching
   • BTraffic shaping with bandwidth limits and priority queues
   • CSSL offloading
   • DHealth monitoring
