[All 301a Questions]

An LTM Specialist is configuring a new virtual server on an LTM device and assigning a SNAT pool that is already is use another virtual server. Both virtual servers use the same pool members to load balance traffic. A maximum of 35,000 users needs to be able to access each virtual server ta any time. The network architecture does NOT allow the backend servers to use the LTM device as a default gateway.

What is the minimum number of SNAT addresses required in the SNAT pool to meet the needs of the virtual servers?

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

Both vs share the same snat pool, and both use the same pool member. Then the concurrent number of snatpool will be added. For each VS, there is a maximum of 35,000 users, and those two VSs have a maximum of 70,000 users. The stem did not mention how many connections each user would have concurrently. Calculated with a minimum of 1 connection, then 70,000 connections would be concurrent. One IP can support 65,535 connection. Therefore, at least 2 or more snaptips are required

I’m leaning towards 4, just to be safe.

Definitely 2, that's standard for load balancing.

Wait, can you really use the same SNAT pool for both servers?

I think 3 is the right answer, but not sure why.

You need at least 2 SNAT addresses for 35,000 users.

I’m a bit confused about whether the SNAT addresses can be shared between the two virtual servers. Does that mean we might need more than one address per server?

I think we practiced a similar question where we had to determine SNAT addresses based on user load. If each server needs to support 35,000 users, wouldn't we need at least 2 addresses?

I remember something about SNAT pools needing enough addresses to handle concurrent connections, but I'm not sure how to calculate that for two virtual servers.

I vaguely recall that the number of SNAT addresses should be based on the maximum number of users per server. So, if both servers need to support 35,000 users, maybe we need at least 4 addresses?

Ah, I see. The problem is that the authentication attempt isn't even showing up in the CPPM Access Tracker. That's interesting. I'd probably check the connectivity between CPPM and any backend directory servers, just to make sure there aren't any issues there.

It's tricky. I thought having an acceptable resolution is pretty basic, so could D actually be less important too?

This looks like a straightforward database design question. I'll carefully review the exhibit to determine the relationship between Customer and Order.
