Google Professional Cloud Network Engineer Exam - Topic 4 Question 86 Discussion

Actual exam question for Google's Professional Cloud Network Engineer exam
Question #: 86
Topic #: 4
[All Professional Cloud Network Engineer Questions]

You are maintaining a Shared VPC in a host project. Several departments within your company have infrastructure in different service projects attached to the Shared VPC and use Identity and Access Management (IAM) permissions to manage the cloud resources in those projects. VPC Network Peering is also set up between the Shared VPC and a common services VPC that is not in a service project. Several users are experiencing failed connectivity between certain instances in different Shared VPC service projects and between certain instances and the internet. You need to validate the network configuration to identify whether a misconfiguration is the root cause of the problem. What should you do?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

The correct answer is D because it meets the following requirements:

It matches the hub-and-spoke model of the on-premises network, where each spoke is a separate VPC network that is connected to a central hub VPC network.

It minimizes management overhead and cost, because VPC Network Peering is a simple and low-cost way to connect VPC networks without using any external IP addresses or VPN gateways1.

It uses default networking quotas and limits, because VPC Network Peering does not consume any quota or limit for VPN tunnels, external IP addresses, or forwarding rules2.

It prevents connectivity between the spokes, because VPC Network Peering is non-transitive by default, meaning that a spoke can only communicate with the hub, not with other spokes1.To enforce this restriction, a third-party network appliance can be used as a default gateway in each spoke VPC network, which can filter out any traffic destined for other spokes3.

Option A is incorrect because it does not minimize cost, as Cloud VPN charges for egress traffic and requires external IP addresses for the VPN gateways4.Option B is incorrect because it does not prevent connectivity between the spokes, as VPC Network Peering allows direct communication between peered VPC networks by default1. Option C is incorrect because it does not minimize cost or use default quotas and limits, for the same reasons as option A.

The Connectivity Tests from the Network Intelligence Center sound familiar; I feel like we practiced that in a lab. It might be the most efficient way to check the connections.

I think running PING tests from the instances could help, but I wonder if that would really show the whole picture of the connectivity issues.

Okay, I've got a plan. I'll run the Connectivity Tests to check the connectivity between the affected endpoints and the internet. That should give me a good overview of where the issues are.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. Should I try pinging the affected instances and the 8.8.8.8 IP address to test the connectivity? Or would the Connectivity Tests from Network Intelligence Center be a better approach?

Okay, I've got this. Client-side scripts are responsible for managing the forms and form fields on a web page, so A is the right answer. The other options don't really fit with the role of client-side scripting.

Absolutely, the Connectivity Tests in the Network Intelligence Center are the way to go. They'll give you a clear understanding of where the connectivity issues are, and you can use that information to identify and fix the root cause.

Using SSH to run PING tests is a standard troubleshooting technique, but it's limited to the instances you can directly access. Leveraging the Network Intelligence Center's Connectivity Tests would be a more efficient way to test connectivity across the entire network.
