A virtual server is associated with a pool that has three members. Two members are marked 'down' by their monitors, but one member is 'up'. What is the availability status of the virtual server?

Unknown, because the monitor results are inconsistent

Degraded, because not all members are up

Online, because at least one pool member is available

Offline, because the majority of members are down

In the Configuration utility, a virtual server is displayed with a yellow triangle icon and the text 'unknown'. What does this status indicator most likely mean?

The virtual server is offline because all pool members are down.

The virtual server is currently being configured and is not yet active.

The virtual server is online but has some performance issues.

The health monitor has not yet run or has not returned a result for the virtual server.

An administrator runs 'tmsh show ltm virtual vs_web' and sees the output includes 'Availability: offline'. What additional information in the same output would help confirm the reason for this status?

The 'Pool' name and the status of its members

The 'Source' address translation setting

The 'Profiles' associated with the virtual server

The 'Destination' address of the virtual server

A virtual server is configured to use a pool with an ICMP monitor. The pool members are reachable via ping, but the virtual server is still showing 'offline'. What is the most likely reason?

The virtual server has no pool associated with it.

The pool members are actually down, and the ICMP monitor is correctly reporting them as down.

The ICMP monitor is not the correct type for the application, so it is failing.

The virtual server is administratively disabled.
