Which statement is true about the synchronization process, as performed by the Configuration
Utility or by typing b config sync all?

B.

The process should always be run from the system with the latest configuration.

C.

The two /config/bigip.conf configuration files are synchronized (made identical) each time the
process is run.

D.

Multiple files, including /config/bigip.conf and /config/bigip_base.conf, are synchronized (made
identical)each time the process is run.

Which statement is true concerning the default communication between a redundant pair of BIG-IP
devices?

A.

Communication between the systems cannot be effected by port lockdown settings.

B.

Data for both connection and persistence mirroring are shared through the same TCP
connection.

C.

Regardless of the configuration, some data is communicated between the systems at regular
intervals.

D.

Connection mirroring data is shared through the serial fail-over cable unless network fail-over is
enabled.

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

Peer IP".
Which address is this?

an address of the other system in its management network

B.

an address of the other system in a redundant pair configuration

C.

an address on the current system used to listen for fail-over messages from the partner BIG-IP

D.

an address on the current system used to initiate mirroring and network fail-over heartbeat
messages

Which two statements describe differences between the active and standby systems? (Choose
two.)

A.

Monitors are performed only by the active system.

B.

Fail-over triggers only cause changes on the active system.

C.

Virtual server addresses are hosted only by the active system.

D.

Configuration changes can only be made on the active system.

E.

Floating self-IP addresses are hosted only by the active system.
