Microsoft AZ-700 Exam - Topic 3 Question 62 Discussion

Actual exam question for Microsoft's AZ-700 exam

Question #: 62
Topic #: 3

You have an Azure virtual network named Vnet1.

You need to ensure that the virtual machines in Vnet1 can access only the Azure SQL resources in the East US Azure region. The virtual machines must be prevented from accessing any Azure Storage resources.

Which two outbound network security group (NSG) rules should you create? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Aan allow rule that has the IP address range of Vnet1 as the source and destination of Sq1.EastUS

Ba deny rule that has a source of VirtualNetwork and a destination of Sq1

Ca deny rule that has a source of VirtualNetwork and a destination of 168.63.129.0/24

Da deny rule that has the IP address range of Vnet1 as the source and destination of Storage

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

Here are the steps and explanations for creating the object that will provide the IP addressing configuration of the on-premises network to the Site-to-Site VPN:

The object that you need to create is called a local network gateway. A local network gateway represents your on-premises network and VPN device in Azure. It contains the public IP address of your VPN device and the address prefixes of your on-premises network that you want to connect to the Azure virtual network1.

To create a local network gateway, you need to go to the Azure portal and selectCreate a resource. Search forlocal network gateway, selectLocal network gateway, then selectCreate2.

On theCreate local network gatewaypage, enter or select the following information and accept the defaults for the remaining settings:

Name: Type a unique name for your local network gateway.

IP address: Type the public IP address of your VPN device, which is 131.107.50.60 in this case.

Address space: Type the internal address range of your on-premises network, which is 10.10.0.0/16 in this case.

Subscription: Select your subscription name.

Resource group: Select your resource group name.

Location: Select the same region as your virtual network.

SelectReview + createand then selectCreateto create your local network gateway2.

A deny rule for 168.63.129.0/24 seems unnecessary to me.

Sounds right, but isn't there a risk of blocking other services?

Wait, can we really block all Storage access like that?

I’m a bit confused about the IP ranges. I thought the deny rule should target the storage IPs directly, so maybe option C is worth considering too.

This question seems familiar; I think we practiced something similar where we had to restrict access. I wonder if option B is the right deny rule?

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like we should definitely have a deny rule for storage access. Maybe option D?

I remember that we need to allow traffic specifically to the SQL resources, so I think option A might be correct.

Alright, I think I've got it. The two rules we need are: 1) an allow rule with the IP range of Vnet1 as the source and destination of Sq1.EastUS, and 2) a deny rule with a source of VirtualNetwork and a destination of Storage.

I've got an idea - we can create an allow rule for the Azure SQL resources in East US, and then a deny rule for the entire VirtualNetwork destination to block access to Azure Storage. That should do the trick.

Okay, let's see. We need to allow access to Azure SQL resources in the East US region, but block access to Azure Storage. I think the key is to create a deny rule for the Azure Storage destination.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully read through the requirements and think about the best way to restrict access while still allowing the necessary connections.

I'm a bit confused on the specifics here. Do we need to create multiple rules, or just one? And what should the source and destination be for the allow rule?

Okay, I think I've got a handle on this. The key is to find a way to disable the geolocation tracking for contractors specifically, without affecting the full-time employees.

I feel unsure about the specifics, but I think not including the instance type in the request could definitely lead to a failure.

I'm not sure about option B. Why would I need to deny access to 168.63.129.0/24? That seems like an odd choice.
