What is required to configure a load balancer in inline mode?
A. DNAT
B. SNAT
C. Client and server connected to different Tier-1 Gateways
D. Client and server running on different transport nodes
What is required to configure a load balancer in inline mode?
The correct answer is B,
when you use an inline LB it uses the same T1 and as mentioned on the statement, client and server connected to a different T1. When you use a different T1, that means a one arm configuration.
Inline Topology
In the inline mode, the load balancer is in the traffic path between the client and the server. Clients and servers should not be connected to overlay segments on the same tier-1 logical router if SNAT on the load balancer is not desired. If clients and servers are connected to overlay segments on the same tier-1 logical router, SNAT is required.

Correct Answer is C
The correct answer is C.
With the inline topology, the load balancer is in the traffic path between the client and the server.
Clients are servers must not be connected to the same Tier-1 Gateway
SNAT is not required.
With the one-arm topology, the load balancer is not in the traffic path between the client and the server.
The client and server can be anywhere.
SNAT is required
The correct answer is C
