Question 31

Scenario: Eight hundred users from a newly acquired company based in another continent will immediately require access to several Citrix applications being added to a zone within the Citrix Virtual Apps Site. Approximately 40 Citrix servers are being deployed in that zone.

Management informs a Citrix Architect that the new company has an unused Citrix ADC MPX 24xxx series applies that should be used to address Citrix Gateway requirements. The design must support updating the Citrix ADC firmware without user interruption.

What should the architect do to ensure that the Citrix ADC MPX 24000-series appliance addresses these requirements?

    Correct Answer: C

    To ensure that the Citrix ADC MPX 24000-series appliance addresses the requirement of updating the Citrix ADC firmware without user interruption, the architect should convert the appliance to Citrix SDX. By doing this, they can install an add-on pack license and deploy Citrix Gateway VPX instances in a cluster. This setup allows multiple instances which can ensure high availability and continuous operation during firmware updates.

Discussion
od34Option: C

The key point is "Citrix ADC firmware without user interruption." You can only do this on multiple-instances feature of ADC, so that means SDX. Correct answer is C

Why should you convert the mpx appliance to a sdx appliance?

d0bermannnOption: C

C. Convert to Citrix SDX, install an add-on pack license on the appliance, and deploy Citrix Gateway VPX instances in a cluster.

A: ACLs? -> Wrong. B: Admin partitions for Gateway not supported. See https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-adc/current-release/admin-partition/admin-partition-config-types.html#case-3 C: Only possible option here, but I wouldn't recommend that in real world. But as we all know: Exams don't live up the real world. I am always wondering who is developing such questions, anway. D: Wrong.

Dude you might get a question about how you prepare omelette using VMs and LB and still you have to answer it if u want to be expert :)) (copyright from this site AZ exam thread)

hotdogwaterOption: C

C is correct in practice, but no one should ever configure Citrix Gateway in a cluster under any circumstance.

hotdogwater

I mean barring no better alternatives.

Haha, right! What an awful question - a single SDX, hosting VPX's grouped into a cluster. The hell kind of nightmare architecture is that!
