How many additional Client IP addresses and Storage IP addresses does the administrator require to complete this task?
A . 3 Client IPs and 2 Storage IPs
B . 2 Client IPs and 2 Storage IPs
C . 3 Client IPs and 3 Storage IPs
D . 2 Client IPs and 3 Storage IPs

Answer: B

Explanation:

To scale out an existing Files instance, the administrator needs to add one Client IP and one Storage IP for each additional FSVM. Since the Files instance needs to expand from four FSVMs to six FSVMs, the administrator needs to add two Client IPs and two Storage IPs in total. The Client IPs are used for communication between the FSVMs and the clients, while the Storage IPs are used for communication between the FSVMs and the CVMs.
