What is the effect of the command GSLBvcStateDelayTime 10 on a GSLB environment when MEP is enabled?

• A. The Metric Exchange Protocol (MEP) will be marked as DOWN if the GSLB service has been DOWN for 10 seconds.
• B. The Metric Exchange Protocol (MEP) will be marked as DOWN if the GSLB vServer has been DOWN for 10 seconds.
• C. The GSLB services will be marked as DOWN, if the Metric Exchange Protocol (MEP) connection has been DOWN for 10 seconds.
• D. The GSLB services will be marked as DOWN if the service has been DOWN for 10 seconds.

Answer: (C)

GSLBvcStateDelayTime sets how long the MEP connection must be down before the GSLB services are marked as DOWN. With a value of 10 seconds, if the Metric Exchange Protocol connection remains down for 10 seconds, the GSLB services are flagged as DOWN. This gives stability by preventing rapid status flips from brief MEP glitches, so the service status reflects a sustained issue rather than a momentary blip. The change affects the GSLB service state and, as a result, how DNS responses are directed, rather than the MEP link itself immediately driving a DOWN status.
