The incoming client IP address is 205.12.45.52. The last five connections have been sent to members C, D, A, B, B. Given the virtual server and pool definitions and the statistics shown in the graphic, which member will be used for the next connection?
The virtual server is using the least connections load balancing method, which means new connections will be directed to the pool member with the fewest current connections. The table shows the current connections for each member: Member A: 56, Member B: 57, Member C: 54 (Offline), Member D: 2, and Member E: 1. Since Member E (10.10.20.5:80) has the fewest current connections, it will be selected for the next connection.
neworleans, and what about Priority ?
Priority group requires at least 2 members to be active within the group - there isn't such group, so priorities aren't really taken into account. Least Connections LB method is selected, so ratio doesn't play a role either. I THINK the correct answer here is 10.10.20.5, so E
is it a right answer?
Because it has a higher priority than E and has the next least connection (load balancing method is Least Connection), I choose "D".
Sorry, simply disregard the above comment.
