Definitely not Ratio, that one’s outdated for load balancing!

Round Robin doesn't consider server load, right?

I thought Least Connection would be better for this scenario.

Dynamic Ratio is the way to go for CPU and memory!

I’m a bit confused; I thought Round Robin was the default method, but it doesn’t really consider server capacity, right?

I remember practicing with a question about load balancing methods, and I feel like Least Connection was mentioned as a way to distribute traffic based on current load.

I think the answer might be Dynamic Ratio since it adjusts based on the server's capacity, but I'm not entirely sure.

I believe Ratio could be a contender too, but it seems like it just divides traffic evenly rather than considering CPU and memory.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I know Layer 2 and Virtual Wire are correct, but I'm not sure about the third option. I'll have to review the material again to make sure I get this right.

This error message seems to indicate an issue with the GSM and GSH components. I'll need to carefully review the troubleshooting steps to determine the root cause.
