• Question 1:

  How is persistence configured?

  

  A. Persistence is an option within each pool's definition.
  B. Persistence is a profile type; an appropriate profile is created and associated with virtual server.
  C. Persistence is a global setting; once enabled, loadbalancing choices are superceded by the persistence method that is specified.
  D. Persistence is an option for each pool member. When a pool is defined, each member's definition includes the option for persistence.

  A. Ping
  B. Health
  C. tcpdump
  D. ifconfig
  C. tcpdump

• Question 3:

  A BIG-IP Administrator is conducting maintenance on one BIG-IP appliance in an HA Pair. Why should the BIG-IP Administrator put the appliance into FORCED_OFFLINE state?

  A. To preserve existing connections to Virtual Servers and reduce the CPU load
  B. To allow new connections to Virtual Servers and ensure the appliance becomes active
  C. To terminate connections to the management IP and decrease persistent connections
  D. To terminate existing connections to Virtual Servers and prevent the appliance from becoming active
  D. To terminate existing connections to Virtual Servers and prevent the appliance from becoming active

• Question 4:

  A site has six members in a pool. All of the servers have been designed, built, and configured with the same applications. It is known that each client's interactions vary significantly and can affect the performance of the servers. If traffic should be sent to all members on a regular basis, which loadbalancing mode is most effective if the goal is to maintain a relatively even load across all servers?

  A. Ratio
  B. Priority
  C. Observed
  D. Round Robin
  C. Observed

• Question 5:

  Refer to the exhibit.

  

  A BIG-IP Administrator needs to deploy an application on the BIG-IP system to perform SSL offload and re-encrypt the traffic to pool members.

  During testing, users are unable to connect to the application.

  What must the BIG-IP Administrator do to resolve the issue?

  A. Remove the configured SSL Profile (Client)
  B. Configure Protocol Profile (Server) as splitsession-default-tcp
  C. Enable Forward Proxy in the SSL Profile (Client)
  D. Configure an SSL Profile (Server)
  D. Configure an SSL Profile (Server)

• Question 6:

  A Standard Virtual Server configured for an application reports poor network performance. This application is accessed mainly from computers on the Internet.

  What should the BIG-IP Administrator configure on the Virtual Server to achieve better network performance?

  A. Protocol Profile (Client) with f5-tcp-wan and Protocol Profile (Server) with f5-tcp-lan
  B. Protocol Profile (Client) with f5-tcp-lan
  C. Protocol Profile (Client) with fS-tcp-lan and Protocol Profile (Server) with f5-tcp-wan
  D. Protocol Profile (Client) with f5-tcp-optimized
  A. Protocol Profile (Client) with f5-tcp-wan and Protocol Profile (Server) with f5-tcp-lan

• Question 7:

  Which statement is true concerning SSL termination?

  A. A virtual server that has both ClientSSL and ServerSSL profiles can still support cookie persistence.
  B. Decrypting traffic at the BIG-IP allows the use of iRules for traffic management, but increases the load on the pool member.
  C. When any virtual server uses a ClientSSL profile, all SSL traffic sent to the BIG-IP is decrypted before it is forwarded to servers.
  D. If a virtual server has both a ClientSSL and ServerSSL profile, the pool members have less SSL processing than if the virtual server had only a ClientSSL profile.
  A. A virtual server that has both ClientSSL and ServerSSL profiles can still support cookie persistence.

• Question 8:

  When network failover is enabled, which of the following is true?

  A. The failover cable status is ignored. Failover is determined by the network status only.
  B. Either a network failure or loss of voltage across the failover cable will cause a failover.
  C. A network failure will not cause a failover as long as there is a voltage across the failover cable.
  D. The presence or absence of voltage over the fail over cable takes precedence over network failover.
  C. A network failure will not cause a failover as long as there is a voltage across the failover cable.

• Question 9:

  What should the 816-IP Administrator provide when opening a new ticket with F5 Support?

  A. bigip.license file
  B. QKViewfile
  C. Device root password
  D. SSL private keys
  B. QKViewfile

• Question 10:

  When upgrading a BIG-IP redundant pair, what happens when one system has been updated but the other has not?

  A. Synching should not be performed.
  B. The first system to be updated will assume the Active role.
  C. This is not possible since both systems are updated simultaneously.
  D. The older system will issue SNMP traps indicating a communication error with the partner.
  A. Synching should not be performed.
