Only a Standard virtual server forwards traffic.
Drop and Reject virtual servers do not forward traffic.

Step 1: Understand the requirement

Traffic type: UDP

Administrator wants it to be forwarded (not dropped or rejected)

So the virtual server must accept traffic and send it to a pool or forward it

Step 2: Review the options

A. Drop VS

Silently discards traffic → ❌ Not what we want

B. Reject VS

Sends TCP RST or ICMP unreachable → ❌ Not what we want

C. Block VS

Not an actual BIG-IP VS type → ❌

D. Standard VS ✅

Standard virtual server accepts traffic and can forward it to a pool or another destination.

Works for UDP and TCP traffic. ✅

✅ Answer:

D. Standard
