Q1Domain Verified
In the context of L4 load balancing, what is the primary mechanism by which a load balancer directs incoming traffic to backend servers, distinguishing it from L7 load balancing?
Network-level packet forwarding based on IP address and port
Content inspection and application-layer protocol analysis
Routing decisions based on HTTP headers and URL paths
SSL/TLS termination and re-encryption
Q2Domain Verified
When configuring a L4 load balancer, which of the following health check mechanisms is MOST appropriate for ensuring that a backend server is capable of accepting TCP connections, without requiring application-level awareness?
TCP SYN/ACK handshake simulation on a specific port
ICMP Echo Request (ping) to the server's IP address
UDP datagram transmission to a designated service port
HTTP GET request to a specific application endpoint
Q3Domain Verified
A common challenge in L4 load balancing is "stickiness" or session persistence. If a user's subsequent requests need to be directed to the same backend server to maintain session state, which L4 persistence method is MOST effective and least intrusive for TCP traffic?
Cookie-based persistence
Application-layer protocol routing
HTTP header manipulation
Source IP address affinity
