Which step can a Citrix Administrator take in order to use the default compression policies?

• A. Bind the default compression policies to the vServer.
• B. Disable the Citrix ADC Compression feature at a global level.
• C. Select the compression algorithm (gzip/deflate/identity).
• D. Enable compression on the associated bound services.

Answer: (D)

To use the default compression policies, you must enable compression for the traffic that flows through the bound resources. The built-in default compression policy exists, but it won’t actually compress responses unless the compression feature is turned on for the associated bound services. Once compression is enabled on those services, the ADC can apply the default compression policy to eligible responses (using the chosen algorithm, typically gzip). Binding the policy to a vServer is part of configuring how it applies, but enabling compression on the bound services is the step that activates the policy in practice. Disabling compression globally would prevent any compression, and choosing a specific algorithm doesn’t by itself enable the policy—compression must be enabled on the services for the default policies to take effect.
