  1. Minimize FTP user isolation.

  2. Use ISAPI extensions instead of ISAPI filters.

  3. Set up remote virtual directories.

  4. Keep websites and FTP servers on different machines.


Correct Option: C
  1. HTTP keep-alive

  2. IS monitoring services

  3. Application failsafe

  4. Rapid-fail protection


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

To answer this question, the user needs to be familiar with IIS and its features. The feature for monitoring the health of multiple worker processes servicing an application pool is called Rapid-fail protection.

A. HTTP keep-alive: This is a feature that allows multiple requests to be sent over the same TCP connection, which can improve performance by reducing the overhead of setting up and tearing down connections. However, it is not related to monitoring the health of worker processes.

B. IS monitoring services: This is not a feature in IIS. Therefore, it is incorrect.

C. Application failsafe: This is not a feature in IIS. Therefore, it is incorrect.

D. Rapid-fail protection: This feature monitors the status of worker processes and disables any that are not responding or are experiencing errors. This helps to ensure that users are not routed to a failing worker process, which can improve the reliability and availability of the application. Therefore, the correct answer is D.

The Answer is: D

When looking at the Memory:pages/sec-counter, a number under 20 indicates:

  1. Everything is just fine and dandy; have some coffee and relax.

  2. You need more RAM.

  3. Compare the number to the network card bandwidth to locate possible bottlenecks.

  4. Increase the cache allotment.


Correct Option: A
  1. Web Application Stress Tool

  2. Microsoft Operations Manager

  3. Traffic Volume Manager Tool

  4. Microsoft Traffic Management Tool


Correct Option: A
  1. 1996

  2. 1997

  3. 1998

  4. 1999

  5. 2000


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

To solve this question, the user needs to know about HTTP compression and its history.

HTTP compression is a technique that reduces the amount of data transmitted between a server and a client by compressing the data before it is sent over the network. This can improve the performance of web pages and reduce the amount of bandwidth required to load them.

Now, let's go through each option:

A. 1996: This option is incorrect. HTTP compression was not introduced until later, so web browsers developed before 1996 would not support it.

B. 1997: This option is also incorrect. While some early implementations of HTTP compression were developed around this time, it was not widely adopted until later.

C. 1998: This option is correct. The first version of the HTTP compression protocol, called "mod_gzip," was introduced in 1998. Web browsers developed after this time should support HTTP compression.

D. 1999: This option is incorrect. While HTTP compression was becoming more widely used around this time, it had already been introduced the year before.

E. 2000: This option is incorrect. By 2000, HTTP compression was well established and widely supported by web browsers.

Therefore, the answer is: C. 1998

  3. Use storied procedures instead of ad hoc queries when accessing back-end SQL data.

  4. Never leave caching turned on.


Correct Option: D
  1. Make the paging file size dynamic.

  2. Make the paging file size static.

  3. Make the paging file large and keep it on a single drive.
