CompTIA Exam SK0-005 Topic 4 Question 72 Discussion

Load balancing is a method used to distribute incoming network traffic across multiple servers. In this scenario, the administrator is tasked with ensuring that all four servers can serve the same website, which is a typical use case for load balancing.

Load balancing (Answer A): Distributes web traffic across multiple servers to ensure availability and reliability.

Direct access (Option B): Refers to client devices connecting directly to a network resource, unrelated to the described scenario.

Overprovisioning (Option C): Refers to allocating more resources than are currently needed, not relevant to load distribution.

Network teaming (Option D): Involves combining multiple network interfaces for redundancy or increased throughput but doesn't address server distribution.
