How can a platform be configured to work with load-balanced PSMs?

ARemove all entries from configured PSM Servers except for the ID of the PSMs with load balancing.

BCreate a new PSM definition that targets the load balancer IP address and assign to the platform.

CInclude details of the PSMs with load balancing in the Basic_psm.ini file on each PSM server.

DUse the Privilege Cloud Portal to update the Session Management settings for the platform in the Master Policy.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

To configure a platform to work with load-balanced Privileged Session Managers (PSMs), you should:

Create a new PSM definition that targets the load balancer IP address and assign it to the platform (Option B). This approach involves configuring the platform settings to direct session traffic through a load balancer that distributes the load across multiple PSM servers. This is effective in environments where high availability and fault tolerance are priorities.
