If the Services field is configured in a Virtual IP (VIP), which of the following statements is true when central NAT is used?
A . The Services field removes the requirement of creating multiple VIPs for different services.
B . The Services field is used when several VIPs need to be bundled into VIP groups.
C . The Services field does not allow source NAT and destination NAT to be combined in the same policy.
D . The Services field does not allow multiple sources of traffic, to use multiple services, to connect to a
single computer.

Answer: A

Explanation:

The Services option has been added to VIP objects. When services and port forward are configured, only a single mapped port can be configured. However, multiple external ports can be mapped to that single internal port. This configuration was made possible to allow for complex scenarios where multiple sources of traffic are using multiple services to connect to a single computer, while requiring a combination of source and destination NAT, and not requiring numerous VIPs to be bundled into VIP groups. VIPs with different services are considered non-overlapping.

When the Services field is configured in a Virtual IP (VIP), it allows you to specify multiple services or ports for the same VIP. This eliminates the need to create separate VIPs for different services, as you can define multiple services within a single VIP using the Services field. This is particularly useful for simplifying configuration and management.
