Explanation

When configuring the Cisco ESA to work with multiple LDAP servers, two supported connection strategies are Load Balancing (A) and Failover (D). With load balancing, the ESA distributes LDAP queries across all configured servers to spread the query load. With failover, the ESA sends all queries to the primary server and only switches to a secondary server if the primary becomes unreachable. These are the two explicitly supported multi-server LDAP modes in the ESA configuration. SLA monitor (B) is a concept from Cisco IOS routing, not ESA LDAP. Active-standby (C) and active-active (E) are terms used in high-availability clustering contexts, not ESA LDAP server configurations.
