Is a subnet a regional or global resource?

34
Q

Is a subnet a a zone bound resource?

A

No it spans zones within a region.

35
Q

Is it possible to share a VPC between projects?

36
Q

Is there a instance limit on a VPC?

A

Yes 7000 instances, you can use a second VPC.

38
Q

Can I convert manual addressing to automatic?

A

No you can only go from auto to manual

39

40
Q

what are network tags?

A

The primary method of segmenting traffic for instances.

41
Q

Is the firewall regional or attached to the global VPC?

A

Attached to the global VPC, this mean when you setup a firewall rule you attached it to a VPC and it is global.

42
Q

Do you define firewall rules at the subnet or instance level?

A

Both instance and subnet level

43
Q

Is all ingress traffic denied by default?

44
Q

45
Q

Are firewall rules prioritized?

A

Yes, rules are evaluated lowest number first.

46

A
  • allow-icmp 65534
  • allow-internal 65534
  • allow-rdp 65534
  • allow-ssh 65534
  • deny-all-ingres 65535
  • allow-all-egress 65535
47

A

Most all rules get 65K at top end, http and https get 1K at ko end.

48

A

Yes, by default you get a default firewall rule to enable traffic that is local between subnets.

49
Q

What is a router?

A

It defines where a packet is sent once it leaves the VM?

50
Q

How would i take two VM and route all traffic to a proxy?

A

Define a route with a tag and asigne the tag to the VM’s

51
Q

For routes what are my next hop options

A
  • default internet gateway
  • VPN tunnel
  • IP
  • Instance
52
Q

Are routes global?

A

Yes, they are attached to a VPC (global)

53
Q

What is a host project?

A

I refers to a project that will host a VPC for other projects.

54
Q

What is a service project?

A

It refers to a project that is using a host project VP.

55
Q

What is a standalone project?

A

It is a project that is not using a shared VPC

56
Q

Can I share a hosted projects outside the orgnization?
