An engineer needs to back up the data on a NAS file share, located on the company’s main production site. Which option would increase the performance of the job?
A.
Deploy the backup proxy and the cache repository on the same network as the NAS.
B.
Assign a high priority to this job.
C.
Assign Veeam WAN accelerators to the job.
D.
Deploy the backup proxy and the cache repository on a dedicated backup network.
To minimize the network load during backup, locate the cache repository closer to the backup proxy in the computer network: at the best, they should be located on one machine.

This question tripped me up at first, I thought D.
The key thing is that D states that the proxy and cache repo are on a dedicated backup network (which sounds great) but doesn't say specifically that they also have NICs in the computer network.
So, A, because a dedicated backup network is all well and good, but if you need to route that traffic outside of the backup network and into the prod network, you're actually moving the cache repo/proxy further away.
Its A, why?
Well you all go for network load etc, but you dont know the network. If the uplink will be a low bandwidth wan acc. would help too.
You need to look at this on a Veeam perspective.
then the NAS needs to be in the same subnet, otherwise it needs to be routed through the default gateway, back to de proxy, and from the proxy to the repo. So way more traffic
Option D, deploying the backup proxy and the cache repository on a dedicated backup network, would likely increase the performance of the backup job.
Explanation:
A backup proxy is responsible for transferring data from the source to the backup repository, while the cache repository stores temporary data during backup processes. By deploying these components on a dedicated backup network, you can isolate backup traffic from the main production network, reducing potential congestion and increasing the overall performance of the backup job.
Options A and C do not directly address network performance concerns. Option B, assigning a high priority to the job, may help in certain cases, but it won't necessarily address network performance issues. Therefore, option D is the most suitable choice for improving performance in this scenario.
