Wait, are the pool members really set as active/standby? That’s surprising!

I doubt it's the LB method; that shouldn't cause intermittent issues.

But what if the default gateway is actually the problem?

I agree, that seems like a likely issue.

Looks like the firewall might be dropping packets from WS1.

I recall something about active/standby setups causing problems if not configured right. Option D sounds plausible, but I need to think more about it.

I practiced a similar question where the LB method was the issue. I wonder if option C could be the cause here as well, but I’m not completely convinced.

I’m not entirely sure, but I feel like option B might be relevant too. If the default gateway is down, that could definitely cause connection issues.

I remember studying about packet drops, and I think option A could be a possibility since firewalls can be tricky with certain traffic.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused. The question mentions the USA PATRIOT Act, but the Fourth Amendment is part of the Constitution. I'll need to think this through carefully.

Based on the requirements to minimize administrative effort, I would go with the Azure portal. It provides a user-friendly interface to manage the DNS zone migration without having to use command-line tools.

This is straightforward. The Citrix Cloud-hosted Gateway Service with Citrix Cloud-hosted Workspace is the obvious choice to satisfy the requirements.
