Selected Answer: A
The load balancer is used to move or distribute client network requests from the internet across the same type of servers. When one of the servers is overwhelmed then the load balancer is moving it to another the same type of server. It makes sure that traffic does not overwhelm any of the servers by balanced distribution. Bridges are used to connect two or more networks together; a firewall filters traffic using ACL to allow or block certain computers. Proxy servers can also filter, modify, and provide caching services. It reduces bandwidth consumption and improves network performance. Switch handling network requests between ISP or router to physical devices on the network. I think Load Balancer would be correct
