Really? 2M sounds too high to me.

I thought it would be 1M, but 2M seems right.

Wait, are you sure it's not 4M?

That's 2M connections for 2 Appliances.

I’m pretty confident that if one appliance supports 1M, then two should support 2M. That’s what we practiced, isn’t it?

I’m a bit confused. I thought each appliance could handle 1M, but does the security group affect that? I need to think this through.

This seems similar to a practice question we did where we calculated total connections for multiple devices. I think it should be 2M, right?

I remember studying about load balancing and how multiple appliances can handle more connections together, but I'm not entirely sure about the exact math here.

I'm still a bit confused. Wouldn't the correct answer be D, since 2 Appliances would each support 1M concurrent connections, for a total of 1M?

Okay, got it. So if one Appliance supports 1M concurrent connections, then 2 Appliances would support 2M concurrent connections. The answer must be A.

I think the key is to focus on the term "concurrent connections". That means the total number of active connections at any given time, not just the sum of the individual capacities.

This seems straightforward - if one Appliance supports 1M connections, then 2 Appliances should support 2M connections.

Hmm, I'm not sure if it's that simple. There might be some kind of scaling factor or limitation that applies when using multiple Appliances.

Ah, the age-old dilemma of 'How many appliances do I need to support my cat videos?' Clearly, the answer is two.

Hmm, D) 1M? That would be a letdown. I mean, why even have two appliances if they can't handle more than one?

I guess having 2 appliances doesn't always mean double the capacity.

I was tempted to go with C) 4M, but then I remembered that's not how it works. Scaling linearly is a basic concept in networking.

Ah, the old 'two is better than one' rule. Simple math, really. I guess the question is trying to test our basic arithmetic skills.

The correct answer is A) 2M. Two appliances should support twice the number of concurrent connections as a single appliance.

That makes sense, each appliance can handle 1M connections so two appliances should support 2M connections.

But if one appliance supports 1M connections, then 2 appliances would support 2M connections, so I still think it's A) 2M.
