An administrator would like to decrease the load time of common websites that employees review daily. Which of the following can be installed?

The correct answer is C. Caching server. A caching server stores local copies of frequently requested web content, reducing the need to fetch the same data repeatedly from the internet and thereby lowering page load times for employees.

Why each option

A caching server stores local copies of frequently requested web content, reducing the need to fetch the same data repeatedly from the internet and thereby lowering page load times for employees.

ALoad balancing

Load balancing distributes incoming traffic across multiple servers to prevent overload on a single server; it does not cache content or reduce internet fetch times for end users.

BVPN concentrator

A VPN concentrator aggregates and manages VPN tunnels for secure remote access; it does not store or serve web content locally.

CCaching serverCorrect

A caching (proxy) server intercepts web requests, stores a local copy of the retrieved content, and serves that cached copy to subsequent requestors without contacting the origin server. This reduces bandwidth consumption and dramatically decreases load times for websites that employees visit regularly, because content is retrieved from the local network instead of the internet.

DFault tolerance

Fault tolerance refers to redundancy mechanisms that keep systems operational during a failure; it does not address content delivery speed or load times.
