Question

Options

• AIt performs rate shaping to reduce overflow.
• BIt forces the client browser to use multiple connections streams.
• CIt uses OneConnect to reduce multiple TCP connections.
• DIt utilizes cached content to prevent unnecessary trips for the same content.
• EIt uses specialized hardware for SSL offload.

Explanation

Web server offload consolidates connections using OneConnect rather than forcing clients to open multiple streams, making choice B the false statement.

Common mistakes.

• A. Rate shaping to reduce server overflow is a valid and documented web server offload function, making this statement true and not the correct answer.
• C. OneConnect is a core BIG-IP profile used in web server offload to pool and reuse existing TCP connections to backend servers, making this statement true.
• D. Content caching allows BIG-IP to serve repeated responses directly without contacting the backend server, which is a genuine web server offload capability.
• E. Offloading SSL processing to dedicated hardware accelerators is a well-documented and real capability of BIG-IP web server offload, making this statement true.
