What is a recommended practice for managing a Citrix ADC high availability (HA) pair to ensure that management changes are always made on the primary Citrix ADC?
A.
Enable USIP on both nodes (primary and secondary).
B.
Connect to both Citrix ADCs to see which one is the primary.
C.
Enable management access to a SNIP.
D.
Enable management access on the Cluster IP (CLIP) address.
This is a tough one, I am watching the 1y0-231 series from Citrix. Little outdated, but they have a screenshot that states "it is a best practice to use a SNIP for management of the HA pairt, to ensure management is always performed on the primary system" But I don't see this referenced much anymore myself.
But here you will see that they have management access disabled on the SNIP

But as discjockeyjoey posted this

that is 150% spot on. If it's in the material their, then that is the answer.
This is a sample question from the Citrix Exam prep guide. They note the correct answer as B.

C is probably always done, but the question says "recommended pratice" which means "best practice" and enable a SNIP for management it's not considered a best practice.
Because of that I will go with B.
