A pool contains members that all listen on port 8443. The virtual server is on port 443. The administrator wants the health monitor to check the members on port 8443. What is the correct way to achieve this?

Configure the monitor with an explicit destination port of 443.

Set the virtual server port to 8443 so the monitor inherits it.

Leave the member service port blank and rely on the virtual server port.

Set the pool member service port to 8443 and configure the monitor without an explicit port.

A pool member is defined with an IP address of 10.1.1.10 and a service port of 8080. What does the 8080 value indicate?

The port on the BIG-IP that clients use to reach the virtual server

The source port that the BIG-IP will use when connecting to 10.1.1.10

The destination port on 10.1.1.10 that the BIG-IP will use when forwarding traffic to that member

The port that the health monitor will use to check the member's status

A pool is used by two virtual servers: one on port 80 and one on port 443. The pool members have no explicit service port set. What destination port will the BIG-IP use when forwarding traffic from the port 443 virtual server to a pool member?

An error occurs because the service port is ambiguous

How does the service port of a pool member affect health monitoring?

The service port determines the source port for health checks

The monitor uses the service port as the destination port for health checks by default

The service port has no effect on health monitoring

The service port must match the monitor's source port
