Scenario: A Citrix Administrator configured a new router that requires some incoming and outgoing traffic to take different paths through it. The administrator notices that this is failing and runs a network trace. After a short monitoring period, the administrator notices that the packets are still NOT getting to the new router from the Citrix ADC.
Which mode should the administrator disable on the Citrix ADC to facilitate the successful routing of the packets?
In this scenario, the administrator is dealing with an issue where packets are not reaching the new router from Citrix ADC, and different paths for incoming and outgoing traffic are required. Disabling MAC-based forwarding (MBF) is a plausible solution because MBF can influence the routing path by making the choice based on the MAC address instead of the IP routing table, potentially causing the packets to follow an unintended path. Disabling MBF will allow the Citrix ADC to route packets based on the IP routing table, which aligns with the desired routing behavior in this scenario.
I would go with C. MBF do affect routing behavior: https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX132952/faq-citrix-netscaler-macbased-forwarding-mbf
