What is the Listen Policy setting in the vServer configuration?

• A. NONE
• B. DEFAULT
• C. BASIC
• D. ADVANCED

Answer: (A)

Listen Policy decides whether the vServer’s listener applies any policy logic to a new connection before it’s handled by the service. Setting it to none means no policy evaluation occurs at the listening stage; the connection is accepted and processed by the vServer without any pre-connection checks or actions defined by a listen policy. The other options would enable some policy logic during connection establishment, with increasing levels of rule complexity, so choosing none keeps the listening path simple and relies on later processing for routing or handling. If you don’t need pre-connection checks, none is the appropriate setting.
