B In a typical active-standby failover configuration, when a failover occurs, the new active system takes over the existing connections, and all open connections are maintained. This is a fundamental aspect of failover in high availability configurations to ensure continuity of service

Please note that they have mentioned ACTIVE system . F5 High Availability (HA) Pair: In this configuration, which is often used with Active-Standby (sometimes called Active-Passive) setups, active connections are not maintained during a failover. When a failover happens, active connections are typically reset. Clients need to reestablish their connections to the new active device.

E is also right...since the new connections flow through the new device. A is partially correct incase we have no conn mirrioring
