A BIG-IP administrator is creating a pool for a service that runs on port 8443. The virtual server is configured on port 443. The administrator wants to use the default behavior for the service port. What will be the service port of the pool members?

8443, because the service port defaults to the member's listening port.

443, because the service port is inherited from the virtual server.

0, because no service port is set.

The service port will be undefined, and traffic will be dropped.

An administrator is using the Configuration utility to add a pool member. The member IP is 192.168.2.10, and the service listens on port 8080. The virtual server is on port 80. Where in the Configuration utility does the administrator specify the service port?

In the 'Service Port' field when adding the pool member.

In the 'Node' configuration, under the 'Port' field.

In the 'Virtual Server' configuration, under the 'Destination Port' field.

In the 'Monitor' configuration, under the 'Port' field.

Which of the following methods can be used to configure the service port for a pool member?

Configuration utility, tmsh, and iControl REST

How does the service port influence load balancing decisions?

The service port has no effect on load balancing decisions

The service port changes the source IP address used for load balancing

The service port is used by the load balancing algorithm to select a pool member

The service port determines which load balancing algorithm is used
