Your company has recently expanded their EMEA-based operations into APAC. Globally distributed users report that their SMTP and IMAP services are slow. Your company requires end-to-end encryption, but you do not have access to the SSL certificates.
Which Google Cloud load balancer should you use?
You are in the early stages of planning a migration to GCP. You want to test the functionality of your hybrid cloud design before you start to implement it in production. The design includes services running on a Compute Engine Virtual Machine instance that need to communicate to on-premises servers using private IP addresses. The on-premises servers have connectivity to the internet, but you have not yet established any Cloud Interconnect connections. You want to choose the lowest cost method of enabling connectivity between your instance and on-premises servers and complete the test in 24 hours.
Which connectivity method should you choose?
Your organization has a Google Cloud Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) with subnets in us-east1, us-west4, and europe-west4 that use the default VPC configuration. Employees in a branch office in Europe need to access the resources in the VPC using HA VPN. You configured the HA VPN associated with the Google Cloud VPC for your organization with a Cloud Router deployed in europe-west4. You need to ensure that the users in the branch office can quickly and easily access all resources in the VPC. What should you do?
You are trying to update firewall rules in a shared VPC for which you have been assigned only Network Admin permissions. You cannot modify the firewall rules. Your organization requires using the least privilege necessary.
Which level of permissions should you request?
You need to enable Private Google Access for use by some subnets within your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). Your security team set up the VPC to send all internet-bound traffic back to the on- premises data center for inspection before egressing to the internet, and is also implementing VPC Service Controls in the environment for API-level security control. You have already enabled the subnets for Private Google Access. What configuration changes should you make to enable Private Google Access while adhering to your security team’s requirements?
You are responsible for enabling Private Google Access for the virtual machine (VM) instances in your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) to access Google APIs. All VM instances have only a private IP address and need to access Cloud Storage. You need to ensure that all VM traffic is routed back to your on-premises data center for traffic scrubbing via your existing Cloud Interconnect connection. However, VM traffic to Google APIs should remain in the VPC. What should you do?
You are configuring the firewall endpoints as part of the Cloud Next Generation Firewall (Cloud NGFW) intrusion prevention service in Google Cloud. You have configured a threat prevention security profile, and you now need to create an endpoint for traffic inspection. What should you do?
You have created a firewall with rules that only allow traffic over HTTP, HTTPS, and SSH ports. While testing, you specifically try to reach the server over multiple ports and protocols; however, you do not see any denied connections in the firewall logs. You want to resolve the issue.
What should you do?
Question:
Your multi-region VPC has had a long-standing HA VPN configured in "region 1" connected to your corporate network. You are planning to add two 10 Gbps Dedicated Interconnect connections and VLAN attachments in "region 2" to connect to the same corporate network. You need to plan for connectivity between your VPC and corporate network to ensure that traffic uses the Dedicated Interconnect connections as the primary path and the HA VPN as the secondary path. What should you do?
You have several microservices running in a private subnet in an existing Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). You need to create additional serverless services that use Cloud Run and Cloud Functions to access the microservices. The network traffic volume between your serverless services and private microservices is low. However, each serverless service must be able to communicate with any of your microservices. You want to implement a solution that minimizes cost. What should you do?
