Wait, why would we need persistence here?

I feel like option A might be too basic since we have a secure connection. We definitely need clientssl, right?

I practiced a similar question where TCP and HTTP profiles were essential, but I can't recall if we need clientssl for this one.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about needing persistence for session management. Could that be relevant here?

I think we need to consider the SSL profiles since we're dealing with a secure site. Maybe option B?
