    Possibilities:

    FWA – 20% Utilization
    FWB – 70% Utilization
    Conclusion: Load sharing unicast where FWA is the pivot

    FWA – 50%
    FWB – 50%
    Conclusion: Load Sharing Multicast

    FWA – 40%
    FWB – 0%
    HA New

      I think it’s like that :

      Load sharing Unicast:
      Member_A : 30% (Pivot)
      Member_B : 70%

      Load sharing Multicast
      1 (local) 30.0.0.1 active
      2 30.0.0.2 active

      New mode High Availability
      1 (Local) 192.168.1.1 0% standby
      2 192.168.1.2 100% active

    In this question, the image shows:

    Cluster Mode: New High Availability (Primary Up)
    Number Unique IP Address Assigned Load State
    1 (Local) 192.168.1.1 0% standby
    2 192.168.1.2 100% active

    The answer is New Mode.

    “To achieve this purpose, ClusterXL’s New High Availability mode designates one of the cluster members as the active machine, while the other members remain in stand-by mode.”

      Nope, not new mode

      Note that in HA Mode the ff. options are avilable ‘New’ and ‘Legacy’
      While the LOad-Balancing Mode has the ff. options ‘Multicast’ and unicast

      Since the two gateways are in active/active state (as well as having loads on both) we can confirm this is a a load-balancing mode, now it is either multicast or unicast

      Based on what I found, unicast mode has a ‘PIVOT’ word when doing cphaprobe state
      HENCE, the answer for this question is: MULTICAST MODE
