Definitely goes to D, makes the most sense!

Ciara 10 months ago

I thought it was the site that wasn't handling traffic?

Merrilee 10 months ago

The Active Site is where traffic is actually handled.

B is incorrect, the Master can be anywhere!

Wait, are we sure about this? Sounds kinda off.

Allene 11 months ago

I'm leaning towards option D because it makes sense that the Active Site would be the one handling traffic, but I could be mixing it up with another term.

Kiley 11 months ago

I feel like I read something about syncing connections, but I can't recall if that was specific to the Active Site or just general for the Dual Site setup.

Shanice 11 months ago

I remember a practice question about site roles, and I think the Active Site has to do with where the SMO Master is located, but that might be a different concept.

Leana 12 months ago

I think the Active Site is where the actual traffic is being processed, but I'm not completely sure if that's what they mean by enforcement.

Dierdre 12 months ago

I'm pretty confident about this one. The active site is the site handling the traffic, while the other site is just syncing the connections to be ready as a backup. Option D is the correct answer.

Moon 12 months ago

Ah, I remember this from the lecture. The active site is the one currently enforcing the traffic for a specific SG, while the other site is just syncing the connections to be ready for a failover. Option D seems to capture that definition accurately.

I'm a bit confused by this one. I know there's an active and a passive site, but I'm not sure about the exact definition of the active site. I'll have to review my notes on Maestro Dual Site to make sure I understand this properly.

Okay, let me see here. The active site is the one handling the traffic, while the other site is just syncing the connections, right? I think option D sounds right, but I'll double-check the details.

Hmm, this question seems a bit tricky. I'll need to think carefully about the differences between the active and passive sites in a Maestro Dual Site environment.

Tracey 1 year ago

This question is a piece of cake! Option D is the clear winner. Anyone who thinks there's no active site in a Dual Site environment is just trying to throw us off. Nice try, but not today!

I'm not sure, but I think the Active Site is the site that is not handling any traffic for the specific SG, but its connections are synced to its SGMs from the MHOs to be ready in the event of a failover.

D is the way to go. Anything involving 'load balancing' and 'no such thing as an active site' just sounds fishy to me. This exam is tough, but I'm feeling good about this one.

Darrel 1 year ago

I believe the Active Site is the site currently handling the enforcement on traffic passing for a specific SG.

Otis 1 year ago

Hmm, I'm a bit torn between B and D, but I think D is the more accurate and complete description of the Active Site. Gotta love these networking questions!

Carylon 1 year ago

I'm going with Option D as well. The description of the Active Site handling the enforcement on traffic and syncing connections within the SGMs is spot on.

I think the Active Site is where the SMO Master exists.

Isabella 1 year ago

Option D definitely sounds like the right definition for Active Site in a Maestro Dual Site environment. Connections being synced within the SGMs in the Active Site makes total sense.
