101 Question #23: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is D: When the loadbalancing choice references "node", the addresses' parameters are used to make. The 'node' load balancing mode bases decisions on aggregate address-level parameters across all pools, while 'member' mode scopes measurements to a single pool membership.
Question
Which statement accurately describes the difference between two loadbalancing modes specified as "member" and "node".
Options
- AThere is no difference; the two terms are referenced for backward compatibility purposes.
- BWhen the loadbalancing choice references "node", priority group activation is unavailable.
- CLoadbalancing options referencing "nodes" are available only when the pool members are
- DWhen the loadbalancing choice references "node", the addresses' parameters are used to make
Explanation
The 'node' load balancing mode bases decisions on aggregate address-level parameters across all pools, while 'member' mode scopes measurements to a single pool membership.
Common mistakes.
- A. The 'node' and 'member' variants represent fundamentally different scopes of metric measurement and are not backward-compatibility aliases for the same behavior.
- B. Priority group activation is governed by the priority group settings on pool members and is not restricted or unavailable based on whether the load balancing mode references 'node' or 'member'.
- C. Node-based load balancing options are not limited to any particular pool member configuration type - they are available regardless of how pool members are defined.
