Nah, TCP Proxy is definitely the right choice for this setup.

I think TCP Proxy Load Balancing is the way to go for port 587.

I feel like Network Load Balancing could work, but it doesn't handle TLS termination, which is a key requirement here.

I practiced a similar question, and I think HTTP(S) Load Balancing is more for web traffic, so it might not fit this scenario.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think SSL Proxy Load Balancing is specifically for SSL traffic, which could be relevant since we need TLS termination.

I remember that TCP Proxy Load Balancing is used for non-HTTP traffic, so that might be the right choice here since we're dealing with port 587.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to carefully consider each option and think about which one doesn't fit with the others.

This seems pretty straightforward. I think option D is the way to go - it looks like the most direct way to create a new backup using the same settings as an existing one.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about how to approach this. The exhibit and question don't provide a lot of context, so I'll need to think carefully about the formula and variables involved.
