Correct Answer: D. Session reuse

Short Explanation with reference:

Session reuse is a feature that allows the Citrix ADC appliance to reuse an existing SSL session between the client and the server, instead of creating a new one for each request1. This reduces the server load, improves response time, and increases the number of SSL transactions per second on an SSL vServer, as the session establishment process involves expensive cryptographic operations2. Session reuse is enabled by default on the Citrix ADC appliance, but it can be disabled or configured with different options1.

Correct Answer: A. It replaces the date header in the HTTP response with the Citrix ADC system time in a conventional date format.

Short Explanation with reference:

A rewrite action is a set of rules that defines how the Citrix ADC appliance modifies the requests and responses that it processes. A rewrite action can use different parameters, such as target, expression, and pattern, to specify what part of the message to modify and how to modify it. The target parameter specifies the part of the message that is modified, such as the header or the body. The expression parameter specifies the new value that replaces the target. The pattern parameter specifies a string or a regular expression that matches the part of the target that is replaced.

In this scenario, the administrator configured a rewrite action as follows:

add rewrite action sync_date replace http.res.date.sys.time

This rewrite action uses the replace parameter, which replaces the entire target with the expression. The target is http.res.date, which is the date header in the HTTP response. The expression is sys.time, which is a built-in function that returns the Citrix ADC system time in a conventional date format, such as “Wed, 06 Sep 2023 12:45:12 GMT”. Therefore, this rewrite action replaces the date header in the HTTP response with the Citrix ADC system time in a conventional date format. This can be useful for synchronizing the time between the server and the client, or for preventing caching issues.

Therefore, the correct way to interpret this rewrite action is A. It replaces the date header in the HTTP response with the Citrix ADC system time in a conventional date format.

The correct answer is D. Configure specific alerts for vServers using Citrix ADM.

Short Explanation with reference: Citrix Application Delivery Management (ADM) is a web-based tool that provides end-to-end visibility and management for Citrix ADC deployments. It also enables administrators to view real-time and historical data on response time, client network latency, and server-side processing time for applications that are load balanced on the Citrix ADC1. Citrix ADM allows administrators to create thresholds and alerts to monitor the state of a Citrix ADC instance, entity, or counter. When the value of a counter exceeds the threshold, Citrix ADM generates an event to signify a performance-related issue, and performs an action such as sending an alert, email, or SMS notification1.

To configure specific alerts for vServers using Citrix ADM, administrators need to follow these steps1:

• In Citrix ADM, navigate to Settings > Analytics Settings > Thresholds.
• Under Thresholds, click Add.
• On the Create Thresholds page, specify the following details:
• Click Create.

The other options are incorrect because they either do not allow setting specific thresholds and alerts for vServers, or they are used for different purposes. Network reporting (option A) and SMTP reporting (option B) are features of Citrix ADM that enable administrators to generate and send reports on network performance and statistics2. They do not allow setting thresholds and alerts for vServers. TCP Insight (option C) is a feature of Citrix ADM that provides detailed analytics of TCP traffic passing through the Citrix ADC instances3. It does not allow setting thresholds and alerts for vServers. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Configure specific alerts for vServers using Citrix ADM.
