   A BIG-IP high availability pair consists of Device A (active) and Device B (standby). Device A is experiencing a hardware issue that causes intermittent packet drops. The administrator decides to force Device A offline to prevent it from impacting traffic. After forcing Device A offline, the administrator notices that Device B has taken over traffic handling. However, the administrator is concerned about the failover behavior if Device B also fails. What is the failover behavior of Device A after it is forced offline?

   • ADevice A will automatically become active if Device B fails.
   • BDevice A will remain in standby and will not take over traffic.
   • CDevice A remains eligible for failover and will take over if Device B fails.
   • DDevice A is no longer eligible for failover until it is brought back online.
