QUESTION: 37

What command can be run to show which SGM is selected to receive traffic?

g_tcpdump
asg monitor
dxl calc
asg calc

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The asg calc command is a tool to show which SGM is selected to receive traffic based on the distribution mode and the packet parameters. It takes the port number, the source IP, the destination IP, and optionally the source port and the destination port as arguments and returns the SGM ID and the hash value. For example, asg calc 1 10.0.0.1 20.0.0.2 1234 80 will show which SGM will receive the traffic from 10.0.0.1:1234 to 20.0.0.2:80 on port 1.

QUESTION: 38

Is it possible to define distribution mode per interface?

Yes, only for downlink interfaces
No, only for the Security Group
Yes, only for uplink interfaces
Yes, for both uplink and downlink interfaces

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Maestro allows you to define the distribution mode per interface, which determines how traffic is distributed among the Security Group Modules (SGMs) in a Security Group. You can configure the distribution mode for each interface individually, or use the default mode for all interfaces. The distribution mode can be set for both uplink and downlink interfaces.

QUESTION: 40

In case of Correction, where is information about Owner stored?

In Correction table of Target Appliance
In Connection tables of all Appliances participating in Correction Layer flow
In Correction tables of all Appliances participating in Correction Layer flow
In Connection table of Target Appliances

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The Correction Layer is a mechanism that handles asymmetric connections in systems with several cluster members. It allows traffic flow to be handled by a single cluster member, even if the flow is asymmetric1
The Correction Layer works as follows:
- When a packet arrives at a cluster member, it checks if it is the owner of the connection. If yes, it processes the packet normally. If not, it checks the Correction table to find the owner of the connection.
- If the owner is found in the Correction table, the packet is forwarded to the owner with a Correction Layer header. The owner then processes the packet and removes the Correction Layer header before sending it to the destination.
- If the owner is not found in the Correction table, the packet is forwarded to the Maestro Orchestrator (MHO) with a Correction Layer header. The MHO then checks its own Correction table to find the owner of the connection. If the owner is found, the MHO forwards the packet to the owner with a Correction Layer header. If the owner is not found, the MHO drops the packet and sends an ICMP error message to the source.
- The Correction tables are updated by the MHO whenever a new connection is established or an existing connection is terminated. The MHO sends Correction Layer messages to all cluster members to inform them about the owner of each connection2
