220-1102 Question #608: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

The correct answer is B: Quality of service. The sudden degradation of all traffic traversing the firewall after launching a new web server indicates that the firewall's ability to prioritize or manage network traffic was not properly configured, pointing to an overlooked Quality of Service (QoS) consideration.

Networking

Question

A web developer installs and launches a new external web server. Immediately following the launch, the performance of all traffic traversing the firewall degrades substantially. Which of the following considerations was overlooked?

Options

AOS compatibility
BQuality of service
C32- vs. 64-bit architecture
DStorage requirements

Explanation

The sudden degradation of all traffic traversing the firewall after launching a new web server indicates that the firewall's ability to prioritize or manage network traffic was not properly configured, pointing to an overlooked Quality of Service (QoS) consideration.

Common mistakes.

A. OS compatibility issues would likely prevent the server from running correctly or cause application-specific problems, not immediately degrade all firewall traffic.
C. The choice between 32-bit and 64-bit architecture primarily affects the server's own performance and memory addressing capabilities, not directly the performance of all traffic traversing the firewall.
D. Insufficient storage requirements would lead to storage-related errors or performance issues on the web server itself, not a degradation of all traffic through the firewall.
