Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, E
Explanation
To configure Network Connectivity Center effectively, you must create a hub and attach spokes (VPNs, interconnects, etc.), ensure proper firewall rules for component communication, and assign the necessary IAM roles for managing NCC. While VPCs and multi-region considerations are essential for broader network design, they are not mandatory steps specific to NCC configuration.
- A. Correct.
Correct. Creating an NCC hub and attaching spokes is the central step in setting up Network Connectivity Center. Spokes represent resources like VPN tunnels or interconnects that connect to the hub.
- B. Correct.
Correct. Firewall rules are required to allow communication between NCC components, such as the hub and its attached spokes.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect. While VPCs are important for Google Cloud networking, they are not required in each branch office specifically for NCC spoke creation. NCC spokes can connect different networking resources.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect. NCC supports multi-region setups, so spokes do not need to be in the same region as the hub.
- E. Correct.
Correct. Appropriate IAM roles, such as Network Connectivity Center Admin, are required to manage and configure NCC effectively.
