Your company acquired a new division. The new division’s network team requires complete control over their networking infrastructure. You need to extend your existing Google Cloud network infrastructure, that consists of a single VPC, to allow workloads from all divisions to communicate with each other. You want to avoid incurring extra costs and granting unnecessary permissions to the new division’s networking team. What should you do?
You need to configure a static route to an on-premises resource behind a Cloud VPN gateway that is configured for policy-based routing using the gcloud command.
Which next hop should you choose?
Question:
You reviewed the user behavior for your main application, which uses an external global Application Load Balancer, and found that the backend servers were overloaded due to erratic spikes in client requests. You need to limit concurrent sessions and return an HTTP 429 "Too Many Requests" response back to the client while following Google-recommended practices. What should you do?
Question:
Your organization has distributed geographic applications with significant data volumes. You need to create a design that exposes the HTTPS workloads globally and keeps traffic costs to a minimum. What should you do?
Your company runs an enterprise platform on-premises using virtual machines (VMS). Your internet customers have created tens of thousands of DNS domains panting to your public IP addresses allocated to the Vtvls Typically, your customers hard-code your IP addresses In their DNS records You are now planning to migrate the platform to Compute Engine and you want to use Bring your Own IP you want to minimize disruption to the Platform What Should you d0?
Your company's on-premises office is connected to Google Cloud using HA VPN. The security team will soon enable VPC Service Controls. You need to create a plan with minimal configuration adjustments, so clients at the office will still be able to privately call the Google APIs and be protected by VPC Service Controls. What should you do?
You are deploying an application that runs on Compute Engine instances. You need to determine how to expose your application to a new customer You must ensure that your application meets the following requirements
• Maps multiple existing reserved external IP addresses to the Instance
• Processes IP Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) traffic
What should you do?
Your company has defined a resource hierarchy that includes a parent folder with subfolders for each department. Each department defines their respective project and VPC in the assigned folder and has the appropriate permissions to create Google Cloud firewall rules. The VPCs should not allow traffic to flow between them. You need to block all traffic from any source, including other VPCs, and delegate only the intra-VPC firewall rules to the respective departments. What should you do?
You decide to set up Cloud NAT. After completing the configuration, you find that one of your instances is not using the Cloud NAT for outbound NAT.
What is the most likely cause of this problem?
Your company recently migrated to Google Cloud in a Single region. You configured separate Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) networks for two departments. Department A and Department B. Department A has requested access to resources that are part Of Department Bis VPC. You need to configure the traffic from private IP addresses to flow between the VPCs using multi-NIC virtual machines (VMS) to meet security requirements Your configuration also must
• Support both TCP and UDP protocols
• Provide fully automated failover
• Include health-checks
Require minimal manual Intervention In the client VMS
Which approach should you take?
Your organization has resources in two different VPCs, each in different Google Cloud projects, and requires connectivity between the resources in the two VPCs. You have already determined that there is no IP address overlap; however, one VPC uses privately used public IP (PUPI) ranges. You would like to enable connectivity between these resources by using a lower cost and higher performance method. What should you do?
In your Google Cloud organization, you have two folders: Dev and Prod. You want a scalable and consistent way to enforce the following firewall rules for all virtual machines (VMs) with minimal cost:
Port 8080 should always be open for VMs in the projects in the Dev folder.
Any traffic to port 8080 should be denied for all VMs in your projects in the Prod folder.
What should you do?
You recently deployed your application in Google Cloud. You need to verify your Google Cloud network configuration before deploying your on-premises workloads. You want to confirm that your Google Cloud network configuration allows traffic to flow from your cloud resources to your on- premises network. This validation should also analyze and diagnose potential failure points in your Google Cloud network configurations without sending any data plane test traffic. What should you do?
You are configuring an Application Load Balancer. The backend resides in your on-premises data center and is connected by Dedicated Interconnect. You need to ensure the load balancer can reference these on-premises resources. You do not want the traffic to traverse the internet at all. What should you do?
Question:
Your organization is deploying a mission-critical application with components in different regions due to strict compliance requirements. There are latency issues between different applications that reside in us-central1 and us-east4. The application team suspects the Google Cloud network as the source of the excessive latency despite using the Premium Network Service Tier. You need to use Google-recommended practices with the least amount of effort to verify the inter-region latency by investigating network performance. What should you do?
You are configuring an HA VPN connection between your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and on-premises network. The VPN gateway is named VPN_GATEWAY_1. You need to restrict VPN tunnels created in the project to only connect to your on-premises VPN public IP address: 203.0.113.1/32. What should you do?
You are adding steps to a working automation that uses a service account to authenticate. You need to drive the automation the ability to retrieve files from a Cloud Storage bucket. Your organization requires using the least privilege possible.
What should you do?
Your organization has a single project that contains multiple Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs). You need to secure API access to your Cloud Storage buckets and BigQuery datasets by allowing API access only from resources in your corporate public networks. What should you do?
All the instances in your project are configured with the custom metadata enable-oslogin value set to FALSE and to block project-wide SSH keys. None of the instances are set with any SSH key, and no project-wide SSH keys have been configured. Firewall rules are set up to allow SSH sessions from any IP address range. You want to SSH into one instance.
What should you do?
You have several microservices running in a private subnet in an existing Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). You need to create additional serverless services that use Cloud Run and Cloud Functions to access the microservices. The network traffic volume between your serverless services and private microservices is low. However, each serverless service must be able to communicate with any of your microservices. You want to implement a solution that minimizes cost. What should you do?
