Question 1 of 30

A critical e-commerce platform, load-balanced by a BIG-IP LTM, has started exhibiting sporadic user-reported timeouts during peak traffic hours. Initial health monitors indicate all backend servers are consistently available. However, packet captures from the LTM\'s console reveal a significant number of TCP resets originating from the LTM itself, directed at a portion of the backend servers, occurring only when specific client IP addresses are involved. The LTM administrator is tasked with resolving this issue urgently while maintaining service for the majority of users. Which course of action best demonstrates adaptability and effective problem-solving under pressure in this ambiguous situation?

Temporarily disable and then re-enable the affected pool members, while simultaneously analyzing BIG-IP connection table entries for patterns related to the client IPs exhibiting issues and correlating them with specific persistence profile configurations.
Immediately escalate the issue to the network infrastructure team, assuming a routing problem, and focus on documenting the health monitor status and virtual server configuration without further direct LTM troubleshooting.
Initiate a full packet capture on all backend servers for an extended period to gather comprehensive data, and then attempt to reconfigure the virtual server's load balancing method to a less resource-intensive algorithm.
Revert the BIG-IP LTM to a previously known stable configuration from a week ago, without analyzing the current logs or connection states, to quickly restore service and address the underlying cause later.
