A systems administrator is troubleshooting network throughput issues following a deployment. The network is currently being overwhelmed by the amount of traffic between the database and the web servers in the environment. Which of the following should the administrator do to resolve this issue?

  1. Set up affinity rules to keep web and database servers on the same hypervisor.
  2. Enable jumbo frames on the gateway.
  3. Move the web and database servers onto the same VXLAN.
  4. Move the servers onto thick-provisioned storage.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Affinity rules will ensure that the web and database servers are placed on the same physical host, reducing the network traffic and improving throughput by allowing for communication over the faster internal network.

Setting up affinity rules to keep web and database servers on the same hypervisor is the BEST option to resolve this issue. Affinity rules will ensure that the web and database servers are located on the same physical host, which will help reduce network latency and improve throughput. This will also help to improve performance as the network traffic will not have to traverse multiple hypervisors. Enabling jumbo frames on the gateway, moving the web and database servers onto the same VXLAN, and moving the servers onto thick-provisioned storage are not likely to resolve network throughput issues between web and database servers.



An update is being deployed to a web application, and a systems administrator notices the cloud SQL database has stopped running. The VM is responding to pings, and there were not any configuration changes scheduled for the VM. Which of the following should the administrator check NEXT?

  1. Logs on the VM
  2. Firewall on the VM
  3. Memory on the VM
  4. vGPU performance on the VM

Answer(s): A



A company is concerned about the security of its data repository that contains customer PII. A systems administrator is asked to deploy a security control that will prevent the exfiltration of such data. Which of the following should the systems administrator implement?

  1. DLP
  2. WAF
  3. FIM
  4. ADC

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

DLP can monitor and control sensitive data leaving the network, whether it's through email, file transfer, or other network traffic. It can also detect and block unauthorized access to sensitive data by users within the network.

An engineer is responsible for configuring a new firewall solution that will be deployed in a new public cloud environment. All traffic must pass through the firewall.
The SLA for the firewall is 99.999%. Which of the following should be deployed?

  1. Two load balancers behind a single firewall
  2. Firewalls in a blue-green configuration
  3. Two firewalls in a HA configuration
  4. A web application firewall

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The other options, such as load balancers, blue-green configuration, or a web application firewall, do not provide the same level of redundancy and failover capabilities as a HA firewall configuration.



After a hardware upgrade on a private cloud system, the systems administrator notices a considerable drop in network performance. Which of the following is
MOST likely the cause?

  1. The driver
  2. The memory
  3. The cluster placement
  4. The CPU

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

A makes the most sense
A. The driver could be the cause of the drop in network performance after the hardware upgrade. Drivers are software components that enable communication between the operating system and the hardware devices in a computer. If the new hardware is not compatible with the current driver, it could lead to performance issues, including slow network performance. Upgrading or updating the driver to a version that is compatible with the new hardware could resolve the issue. The other options, such as memory, cluster placement, and CPU, could also potentially impact performance, but the issue with the driver is the most likely cause based on the description provided.
