How should a BIG-IP Administrator control the amount of traffic that a newly enabled pool member receives.

Aset the Slow Ramp Time

Bset a Connection Limit

Cset the Priority Group Activation

Dset a Health Monitor

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

Specifies the duration during which the system sends less traffic to a newly-enabled pool member. The amount of traffic is based on the ratio of how long the pool member has been available compared to the slow ramp time, in seconds. Once the pool member has been online for a time greater than the slow ramp time, the pool member receives a full proportion of the incoming traffic. Slow ramp time is particularly useful for the least connections load balancing mode.

Setting this to a nonzero value can cause unexpected Priority Group behavior, such as load balancing to a low-priority member even with enough high-priority servers.

Slow Ramp Time is the way to go, unless you want your new pool member to be flooded with traffic and crash immediately. *chuckles*

Health Monitor? Really? That's for checking the health of the member, not controlling the traffic. *rolls eyes*

Hmm, I'm not sure. Maybe the Priority Group Activation setting could work, but it seems a bit overkill for this scenario.

I think setting the Slow Ramp Time is the best approach here. It allows for a gradual increase in traffic to the new member.

Definitely go with option B. Connection Limit is the way to control the traffic to a new pool member.

I think setting a Health Monitor is also important to ensure the pool member is healthy before receiving traffic.
