AZ-700 Question 201

Single answer

You have an Azure Virtual Network with two subnets: SubnetA (10.0.0.0/24) and SubnetB (10.0.1.0/24). SubnetB hosts a network virtual appliance (NVA) that inspects outbound traffic. You have created a route table with a user-defined route that sends all internet-bound traffic (0.0.0.0/0) from SubnetA to the NVA IP address as the next hop. However, traffic from SubnetA still flows directly to the internet instead of going through the NVA. Which additional configuration step should you perform to ensure SubnetA� traffic is routed through the NVA?

  1. A

    Associate the route table with SubnetB and enable IP forwarding on the NVA.

  2. B

    Associate the route table with SubnetA so the user-defined route applies to that subnet.

  3. C

    Configure a load balancer rule that forwards all outbound traffic to the NVA.

  4. D

    Add a public IP address on the NVA and update the next hop to 'Virtual Network Gateway'.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

To force subnet-level traffic through a network virtual appliance, you must configure a user-defined route that specifies the NVA� IP address as the next hop AND associate that route table with the relevant subnet. For more information, refer to Microsoft� official documentation on user-defined routes: https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/virtual-network/virtual-networks-udr-overview.

  • A. Incorrect.

    Option 1: This is incorrect. Associating the route table with SubnetB does not affect traffic originating in SubnetA. The route table must be associated with the subnet whose traffic you want to control (SubnetA).

  • B. Correct.

    Option 2: This is correct. A user-defined route only takes effect when the route table is associated with the specific subnet in which you want to override the default routing. Associating it with SubnetA ensures its outbound traffic is directed to the NVA.

  • C. Incorrect.

    Option 3: This is incorrect. A load balancer rule alone will not alter the default routing path for SubnetA� outbound internet traffic. User-defined routes must be applied at the subnet level.

  • D. Incorrect.

    Option 4: This is incorrect. Changing the next hop to 'Virtual Network Gateway' would direct traffic toward an Azure VPN or ExpressRoute gateway. A public IP on the NVA is unrelated to the need for associating the route table with the correct subnet.

AZ-700 Question 202

Single answer

You are managing a three-tier application hosted in Azure, where the front-end tier (Subnet A) must route all incoming traffic through an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) deployed in Subnet B for inspection. You have created a new route table (with a user-defined route) specifying the IDS� private IP as the next hop. However, traffic from Subnet A continues to bypass the IDS and goes directly to its destination. Which action should you take to ensure that Subnet A� traffic is routed to the IDS?

  1. A

    Enable BGP route propagation on the route table.

  2. B

    Deploy the route table to the virtual network gateway subnet.

  3. C

    Add a user-defined route with the Internet as the next hop type.

  4. D

    Associate the route table with Subnet A.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

When using user-defined routes (UDRs), you must associate the route table with the specific subnet whose traffic you want to control. In this scenario, associating the route table with Subnet A ensures that all traffic from that subnet is directed to the specified next hop�in this case, the IDS in Subnet B. According to Azure documentation, any custom route must be associated at the subnet level to override the default Azure system routes.

  • A. Incorrect.

    Incorrect. BGP route propagation primarily affects routes learned from on-premises or ExpressRoute connections. Enabling this will not ensure intra-VNet custom routes are applied.

  • B. Incorrect.

    Incorrect. Associating a route table with the virtual network gateway subnet applies routes to that specific subnet only, not to Subnet A where the traffic originates.

  • C. Incorrect.

    Incorrect. Setting the next hop type to 'Internet' would send traffic out to the public Internet, not to the IDS. This does not meet the requirement of forwarding traffic to a subnet-hosted IDS.

  • D. Correct.

    Correct. A custom route table must be explicitly associated with the subnet that will use the custom routes. Associating the route table with Subnet A ensures all traffic from Subnet A is redirected to the next hop you configured, which is the IDS in Subnet B.

AZ-700 Question 203

Select 2

You manage an Azure Application Gateway routing traffic to multiple backend web applications. Each application must receive traffic over a secure connection from the gateway, and user sessions must stay on the same backend instance for proper session state management. Which two configuration changes should you make under the Application Gateway� HTTP settings to meet these requirements?

  1. A

    Enable cookie-based affinity

  2. B

    Set the backend protocol to HTTPS

  3. C

    Disable server name indication (SNI)

  4. D

    Disable cookie-based affinity

Show answer and explanation

Correct answers: A, B

Explanation

To meet the requirements of both secure connections and session persistence, the key HTTP settings are enabling cookie-based affinity and specifying HTTPS for backend protocol on the Azure Application Gateway. This aligns with Microsoft� best practices for handling session state in multi-instance environments and ensuring encrypted traffic to backends. For further details, refer to Microsoft Docs on configuring HTTP settings for Azure Application Gateway: https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/application-gateway/configuration-overview#http-settings.

  • A. Correct.

    Enabling cookie-based affinity ensures that each returning user is consistently routed to the same backend instance, maintaining session state correctly.

  • B. Correct.

    Setting the backend protocol to HTTPS guarantees secure communication between the Application Gateway and the web applications, fulfilling the requirement for encrypted traffic.

  • C. Incorrect.

    Disabling server name indication (SNI) is normally not required in this scenario. SNI helps host multiple SSL certificates on the same IP/port. Turning it off wouldn�t address session affinity or encrypted traffic requirements.

  • D. Incorrect.

    Disabling cookie-based affinity would break session-specific routing; in fact, you need to enable it, not disable it.

AZ-700 Question 204

Select 2

You have deployed an Azure Application Gateway to distribute traffic to a set of backend web servers. Your application must receive the original host header for licensing checks, and you also need session-based persistence. Which two settings should you configure in the Application Gateway� HTTP settings to fulfill these requirements? (Choose two.)

  1. A

    Disable the 'Override with a specific domain name' setting

  2. B

    Enable 'Cookie-based affinity'

  3. C

    Enable 'Override with a specific domain name' and provide the custom domain

  4. D

    Specify a custom path override (e.g., /myapp/)

  5. E

    Configure Connection Draining

Show answer and explanation

Correct answers: A, B

Explanation

To configure HTTP settings on an Azure Application Gateway so that the backend servers receive the original host header (critical for applications relying on it) and to maintain session-based persistence, you must disable overrides that would replace or modify the incoming host header and enable cookie-based affinity. Refer to Microsoft Documentation on Azure Application Gateway (https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/application-gateway/configuration-overview#http-settings) to see how host header preservation and cookie-based affinity are configured under HTTP settings.

  • A. Correct.

    Option 1: Correct. Disabling the 'Override with a specific domain name' means the Application Gateway will pass the original host header to the backend, preserving upstream data needed for licensing checks.

  • B. Correct.

    Option 2: Correct. Enabling 'Cookie-based affinity' ensures that each client stays on the same backend server, providing session persistence.

  • C. Incorrect.

    Option 3: Incorrect. Enabling this override would replace the original host header with a custom domain name, which would break the licensing checks that depend on the original host header.

  • D. Incorrect.

    Option 4: Incorrect. Specifying a custom path override adjusts the path portion of the request, not the host header or session affinity. It� unrelated to preserving the original host header or managing session-based persistence.

  • E. Incorrect.

    Option 5: Incorrect. Connection Draining is useful when removing backend instances but does not affect host headers or session-based persistence settings.

AZ-700 Question 205

Select 2

You are deploying an Azure Application Gateway in front of a web application hosted on an Azure App Service with a custom domain. All traffic between clients and the Application Gateway is already secured using HTTPS. You now want to ensure end-to-end TLS from the clients to the Application Gateway and from the Application Gateway to the backend web app. Which two actions should you take to achieve this?

  1. A
    1. Upload the PFX certificate (matching the custom domain) to the Application Gateway� HTTPS listener and set up a corresponding HTTPS setting to use TLS for the backend pool.
  2. B
    1. Configure the Application Gateway� backend HTTP setting to use HTTP on port 80 for communication with the backend web app.
  3. C
    1. Assign a self-signed certificate on the backend web app using a different domain name than the custom domain.
  4. D
    1. Configure a custom domain certificate in the backend web app and add the corresponding root certificate to the Application Gateway� trusted root certificates.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answers: A, D

Explanation

In an end-to-end TLS configuration with Azure Application Gateway, you must encrypt traffic from the client to the Application Gateway and again from the gateway to the backend. Storing a valid PFX certificate on the gateway, configuring an HTTPS backend pool, and uploading the root certificate to the gateway� trusted store are critical. This ensures that the Application Gateway can re-encrypt traffic to the backend web app using the correct domain certificate. For more details, see Microsoft documentation on configuring end-to-end SSL with Azure Application Gateway: https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/application-gateway/configuration-end-to-end-ssl.

  • A. Correct.

    Correct. For end-to-end TLS, you must provide the PFX (containing the private key) to the Application Gateway� HTTPS listener. You also need to configure the HTTP setting to use HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communication with the backend. This setup allows the Application Gateway to decrypt and re-encrypt traffic properly for the custom domain.

  • B. Incorrect.

    Incorrect. Using HTTP on port 80 for the backend setting would terminate TLS at the Application Gateway, which means the traffic from the gateway to the web app would be unencrypted. This option would not achieve end-to-end TLS.

  • C. Incorrect.

    Incorrect. A self-signed certificate using a mismatched domain name would break TLS validation. In an end-to-end TLS configuration, the certificate must match the custom domain to avoid certificate errors or failed connections.

  • D. Correct.

    Correct. When using end-to-end TLS, the backend web app must also serve the same (or a domain-valid) certificate. The root certificate for that certificate must be uploaded to the Application Gateway� trusted root store so that the gateway can properly validate and trust secured traffic to the backend.
