End users report widespread issues accessing multiple network resources. What tool should the BIG IP Administrator use to view the status of all virtual servers and associated resources in one place?
The correct answer is B. Network Map. The F5 BIG-IP Network Map provides a single consolidated view of all virtual servers, pools, and associated resources with their health status, making it the correct tool for diagnosing widespread access issues.

Why each option
The F5 BIG-IP Network Map provides a single consolidated view of all virtual servers, pools, and associated resources with their health status, making it the correct tool for diagnosing widespread access issues.
Pool statistics show performance and connection data only for pools, not the full virtual server topology or cross-resource status.
The Network Map in BIG-IP displays a hierarchical, real-time visual topology of every virtual server alongside its associated pools and pool members, including the health status of each component. This lets an administrator immediately identify which resources are down or degraded across the entire configuration in one screen, rather than navigating multiple statistics pages.
System performance displays CPU, memory, and throughput metrics for the BIG-IP appliance itself, not the status of virtual servers or their associated resources.
Virtual server statistics show traffic counters for individual virtual servers but do not surface the health of associated pools and pool members in a unified map view.
