AZ-700 Question 101

Single answer

Your organization needs a point-to-site VPN in Azure to support approximately 200 concurrent remote users. They require OpenVPN protocol support and moderate throughput. Which virtual network gateway SKU should you deploy to meet these requirements while keeping costs reasonable?

  1. A

    Basic

  2. B

    VpnGw1

  3. C

    VpnGw2

  4. D

    VpnGw3

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

In Azure, choosing a suitable VPN gateway SKU depends on factors such as the maximum number of point-to-site connections required, the expected throughput, and cost considerations. Basic supports only up to 128 connections and does not offer adequate throughput for larger workloads. VpnGw1 supports up to 250 concurrent connections, including OpenVPN for point-to-site VPN tunnels, making it an appropriate solution for scenarios close to 200 concurrent users. For further details, consult Microsoft� documentation on Azure VPN Gateway SKUs at https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/vpn-gateway/vpn-gateway-about-vpn-gateway-settings.

  • A. Incorrect.

    Option A (Basic) is incorrect because the Basic SKU is limited in both throughput and the number of supported point-to-site connections (128 maximum). Your requirement of 200 users exceeds that limit.

  • B. Correct.

    Option B (VpnGw1) is correct because it supports up to 250 concurrent point-to-site VPN connections and offers OpenVPN protocol capabilities at a moderate cost, satisfying the scenario where about 200 concurrent users are needed.

  • C. Incorrect.

    Option C (VpnGw2) is incorrect in this context, not because it wouldn't work (it can support more connections and higher throughput), but it would be more expensive than VpnGw1 without a clear need for additional concurrency or bandwidth. Therefore, it isn't the most cost-effective choice here.

  • D. Incorrect.

    Option D (VpnGw3) is incorrect for similar reasons as VpnGw2�it provides even higher capacity and throughput but is generally more expensive and unnecessary for 200 concurrent users, making it an over-provisioned solution in this scenario.

AZ-700 Question 102

Single answer

A research company plans a point-to-site (P2S) VPN deployment to provide remote developers secure access to Azure resources. They expect about 300 concurrent connections at peak load, must use Azure AD authentication, and want to avoid unnecessary cost. Which Gateway SKU should you recommend?

  1. A

    Basic

  2. B

    VpnGw1

  3. C

    VpnGw2

  4. D

    VpnGw3

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

For point-to-site VPN solutions, each VpnGw SKU has different capacity limits for concurrent connections and supports different authentication methods. Basic is limited to 128 connections and does not support Azure AD. VpnGw1 supports up to 250 connections, which is insufficient for 300 concurrent users. VpnGw2 supports up to 500 connections and includes Azure AD support, meeting both capacity and authentication needs cost-effectively. VpnGw3 provides higher throughput and capacity of up to 1,000 connections but would be more expensive without a matching requirement for that higher capacity. For more details, see Microsoft� documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/vpn-gateway/vpn-gateway-about-vpn-gateway-settings

  • A. Incorrect.

    Incorrect. The Basic SKU supports a maximum of 128 point-to-site connections, which is insufficient for the 300 connections required. Additionally, it does not support Azure AD authentication.

  • B. Incorrect.

    Incorrect. Although VpnGw1 supports Azure AD authentication, it only provides up to 250 concurrent point-to-site connections, which does not meet the 300 connection requirement.

  • C. Correct.

    Correct. VpnGw2 supports up to 500 concurrent point-to-site connections and Azure AD authentication, making it suitable for 300 concurrent connections while remaining cost-efficient compared to higher SKUs.

  • D. Incorrect.

    Incorrect. VpnGw3 supports up to 1,000 concurrent connections, which is more than needed. It would work but is not the most cost-effective choice given the 300-connection requirement.

AZ-700 Question 103

Single answer

Your company� on-premises network team wants to implement a Site-to-Site VPN between the corporate data center and an Azure VNet. They require dynamic routing (BGP) to handle multiple subnets and plan to configure active-active VPN connections for redundancy. Which VPN tunnel type should you select to meet all these requirements?

  1. A

    Policy-based VPN

  2. B

    Route-based VPN

  3. C

    ExpressRoute Private Peering

  4. D

    Point-to-Site (Client VPN) using SSTP

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

In Azure, a route-based VPN is required when you need dynamic routing using BGP, multi-site connectivity, or active-active configurations for redundancy. Policy-based VPNs are limited to static routes and do not support BGP, making them unsuitable for more advanced or scalable scenarios. For more details, refer to the official Microsoft documentation on VPN Gateway configurations for route-based and policy-based tunnels.

  • A. Incorrect.

    Option 1 (Policy-based VPN): Incorrect. While policy-based VPNs can secure traffic based on specific IP address pairs (static routes), they do not support BGP or active-active configurations with multiple tunnels. Policy-based VPNs generally work well for smaller, fixed traffic patterns but are not suitable for dynamic routing requirements.

  • B. Correct.

    Option 2 (Route-based VPN): Correct. Route-based VPNs use any-to-any (wildcard) traffic selectors and can integrate with BGP for dynamic routing. They also support active-active configurations, enabling high availability and scalability when multiple tunnels are needed.

  • C. Incorrect.

    Option 3 (ExpressRoute Private Peering): Incorrect. ExpressRoute is a dedicated circuit for private connectivity to Azure, not a Site-to-Site VPN tunnel type. While ExpressRoute can offer high throughput and reliability, it does not replace the need for a VPN tunnel solution in this scenario.

  • D. Incorrect.

    Option 4 (Point-to-Site (Client VPN) using SSTP): Incorrect. Point-to-Site connections are suited for individual clients or remote users to connect securely to Azure, not for corporate Site-to-Site scenarios that require dynamic routing and redundancy.

AZ-700 Question 104

Single answer

Your company needs to establish a secure site-to-site VPN connection to Azure from an on-premises firewall that only supports policy-based IPsec VPN. However, your network team is also planning to implement dynamic routing (using BGP) in the near future. Which Azure VPN Gateway configuration should you choose to accommodate both the current firewall limitations and future routing requirements?

  1. A

    Use a Policy-based (Basic) Azure VPN gateway to match the on-premises firewall� policy-based configuration

  2. B

    Deploy an ExpressRoute circuit for private connectivity and dynamic routing

  3. C

    Implement a Route-based VPN gateway in Azure with policy-based traffic selectors

  4. D

    Implement a Route-based VPN gateway in Azure with active-active configuration

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Azure supports two main VPN gateway types: Policy-based and Route-based. Policy-based gateways rely on static IPsec tunnels and lack support for dynamic routing. Route-based gateways use tunnel interfaces for IPsec encryption and can support advanced routing features like BGP. However, you can configure a Route-based gateway to accept policy-based traffic from older devices by enabling policy-based traffic selectors. This design meets the immediate requirement (compatibility with a policy-based firewall) while preserving the flexibility to implement BGP-based dynamic routing in the future. For more details, refer to Microsoft Azure documentation on 'About VPN Gateway' and 'VPN Policy-Based versus Route-Based' sections.

  • A. Incorrect.

    Incorrect. While a Policy-based (Basic) gateway is compatible with an older firewall that only supports policy-based VPN, it does not support future dynamic routing via BGP. This approach would force you to upgrade the gateway to route-based later.

  • B. Incorrect.

    Incorrect. ExpressRoute provides private, high-throughput connectivity, but it is not an IPsec-based VPN solution and does not address the immediate requirement of connecting a policy-based firewall over a VPN tunnel. It also entails higher costs and different provisioning steps.

  • C. Correct.

    Correct. A Route-based VPN gateway with policy-based traffic selectors can support the older firewall� policy-based IPsec now and accommodate dynamic routing (BGP) in the future without requiring a gateway replacement. This approach offers maximum flexibility for upcoming routing needs.

  • D. Incorrect.

    Incorrect. Although a route-based VPN with active-active configuration offers higher availability pathways, it does not specifically address the compatibility requirements of a policy-based firewall. Active-active alone does not solve the policy-based compatibility challenge.

AZ-700 Question 105

Select 2

You manage a multi-tier application running on Azure Virtual Machines that uses Azure Key Vault to store sensitive connection strings. The VMs are domain-joined and must periodically retrieve these secrets. However, your organization's security policy prohibits storing any form of credentials or certificates on the VMs to keep them stateless and secure. Which two authentication methods can you implement to allow the VMs to securely access the secrets in Azure Key Vault without storing credentials locally?

  1. A

    Assign a system-assigned managed identity to each VM

  2. B

    Configure a user-assigned managed identity and link it to the VMs

  3. C

    Use an Azure AD service principal that stores a client secret on the VM

  4. D

    Use a shared key placed in a secure folder on each VM

Show answer and explanation

Correct answers: A, B

Explanation

Managed identities (system-assigned or user-assigned) are the recommended methods for Azure resources, including Azure Virtual Machines, to securely access Azure Key Vault without locally storing credentials. Both types of managed identities eliminate the need to manage and rotate secrets or certificates manually. For more details, see the official Azure Key Vault documentation on using managed identities: https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/key-vault/general/managed-identity.

  • A. Correct.

    Correct. A system-assigned managed identity is automatically created, managed, and rotated by Azure, so the VM can authenticate to Key Vault without storing credentials. This approach meets the requirement of not placing credentials on the VM.

  • B. Correct.

    Correct. A user-assigned managed identity is created independently of a specific VM but can be assigned to multiple resources. It also avoids credential storage on the VM since Azure manages rotations and lifecycle.

  • C. Incorrect.

    Incorrect. While using an Azure AD service principal is a valid authentication method, storing a client secret on the VM violates the requirement that no credentials be stored on the VM.

  • D. Incorrect.

    Incorrect. Shared keys stored on the VM create a security concern, as they would be considered static credentials. This goes against the organization� requirement to avoid local credential storage.
