Least bandwidth is only for specific setups, right?

Definitely Round-robin, that's standard.

I feel like I’ve seen least bandwidth mentioned in other questions, but it doesn’t seem like the default. Round-robin sounds more familiar.

I’m a bit confused; I thought the least connections method was the default for some setups. Is that only for specific configurations?

I remember practicing a question about load-balancing methods, and I believe it was mentioned that round-robin is the default.

I think the default method during startup is round-robin, but I'm not entirely sure. It seems like a common choice.

I think the key here is to focus on the default behavior, not the configured method. The question is asking about the startup, so the default round-robin method should be the correct answer.

I'm not entirely sure about this one. The question is a bit tricky, as it's asking about the default behavior during startup, but the virtual server is configured to use a different method. I'll need to double-check my understanding of Citrix load-balancing before answering.

Okay, I've got this. The question is asking about the default load-balancing method during startup, not the configured method. So the correct answer should be round-robin, since that's the default.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused here. The question mentions that the virtual server is using the least bandwidth method, but it's asking about the default load-balancing method during startup. I'll need to think this through carefully.

I think this is a pretty straightforward question. The question states that the load-balancing virtual server is configured to use the least bandwidth method, so the default load-balancing method during startup should be round-robin.

I think it's least bandwidth because it was configured that way.

B. Least connections is the way to go. It's a common load-balancing method that ensures the server with the fewest active connections gets the next request.

True, but least connections adapts to load changes.

D. Custom load seems like the most logical choice. The administrator would have the ability to set the default load-balancing method to something other than the typical round-robin or least connections.

I think the answer is C. The question states that the load-balancing virtual server is configured to use the least bandwidth method, so it makes sense that during startup, the default method would also be least bandwidth.

A: The answer is actually A) Round-robin. It is the default load-balancing method used during startup.
