How is persistence configured?
The correct answer is B. Persistence is a profile type; an appropriate profile is created and associated with virtual server. Persistence is configured on a BIG-IP system by creating and associating a specific persistence profile with a virtual server.

Why each option
Persistence is configured on a BIG-IP system by creating and associating a specific persistence profile with a virtual server.
While a pool is involved in sending traffic to members, persistence configuration itself is not an option within each pool's definition; it's applied at the virtual server level.
On a BIG-IP system, persistence is implemented through persistence profiles (e.g., Source Address, Cookie, SSL Session ID) that are created and then applied to a virtual server.
Persistence is not a global setting that overrides all load balancing; it's a configurable behavior defined per virtual server using profiles.
Persistence is not an option configured on individual pool members; it's a virtual server setting that determines how traffic is directed to pool members based on client information.
