Practice Tests Flashcards
Why does Azure Bastion require a public IP address?
Traffic is first routed to the public IP of Bastion. Bastion then routes RDP or SSH connections to the private IP address associated with the virtual machine.
Bastion subnet requirement
Azure Bastion requires a dedicated subnet: AzureBastionSubnet. You must create this subnet in the same virtual network that you want to deploy Azure Bastion to.
What are the three scopes you can assign an Azure policy to?
management group
subscription
resource group.
What are the three entities that an administrative unit can contain?
users
groups
devices
True or false: service endpoints are enabled per service, per subnet.
True
Network security groups limit access to all resources within a subnet.
True. But first the NSG has to be associated with the subnet.
Smallest in size to largest: Account, Subscription, Department
Department, Account, Subscription
Departments help to segment costs into logical groupings and set a budget or quota at the department level. The quota isn’t firmly enforced; it’s used for reporting purposes.
Accounts are organizational units in the Azure EA portal. They can be used to manage subscriptions and access reports.
Subscriptions are the smallest units in the Azure EA portal. They’re containers for Azure services that are managed by a Service Administrator. This is where your organization deploys Azure services.
True or false: Azure resources are deployed into Azure management groups.
False. Azure subscriptions.
Azure backup and soft delete
With soft delete, even if a malicious actor deletes a backup (or backup data is accidentally deleted), the backup data is retained for 14 additional days, allowing the recovery of that backup item with no data loss. The additional 14 days of retention for backup data in the “soft delete” state don’t incur any cost to you.
Limitations on deleting a recovery services vault
You can’t delete a vault that contains protected data sources (for example, IaaS VMs, SQL databases, Azure file shares).
You can’t delete a vault that contains backup data. Once backup data is deleted, it will go into the soft deleted state.
You can’t delete a vault that contains backup data in the soft deleted state.
You can’t delete a vault that has registered storage accounts.
AAD joined device. Who can administer?
When you connect a Windows device with Azure AD using an Azure AD join, Azure AD adds the following security principals to the local administrators group on the device:
The Azure AD global administrator role
The Azure AD joined device local administrator role
The user performing the Azure AD join
By adding Azure AD roles to the local administrators group, you can update the users that can manage a device anytime in Azure AD without modifying anything on the device.
What is the effect of moving a web app?
Moving the web app does not have an impact an app service plan. The app service plan will remain in its source location or resource group. Since web app is moved to a different resource group, the policies in the target resource group will be applied.
What does Azure Traffic Manager do?
Distributes traffic across Azure regions
Does changing a VM size require restart?
Yes. If the virtual machine is currently running, changing its size will cause it to be restarted.
For load balancing, what is the difference between global vs. regional?
Global-These services route end-user traffic to the closest available backend, so to closest region
Regional load-balancing services distribute traffic within virtual networks across virtual machines (VMs) or zonal and zone-redundant service endpoints within a region.
Name the Azure load balancing options in terms of global and regional
Global: Azure Traffic Manager, Azure Front Door
Regional: Azure Load Balancer, Application Gateway
What is the difference between Azure roles and Azure AD roles?
Separate.
Azure role assignments do not grant access to Azure AD. They grant access to Azure resources. However, global admin role in AAD allows you to get User Access Admin role in Azure at root scope.
Azure Bastion setup
The Azure Bastion service is a fully platform-managed PaaS service that you provision inside your virtual network.
How would you make Azure services available to private IP addresses in your vnet
Virtual Network (VNet) service endpoint provides secure and direct connectivity to Azure services over an optimized route over the Azure backbone network. Endpoints allow you to secure your critical Azure service resources to only your virtual networks.
Can a vm in one location connect to a virtual network in another location?
No. Everything has to be in the same location and subscription.
Vm—>NIC—>VNet
Can a vm move to a different subnet within a vnet?
Yes. Add a NIC. Multiple NICs allow a VM to connect to different subnets.
If you host an app on two vm’s, each in a different availability zone, and one zone has local failures, will you still be able to access the app?
Yes, because each vm is in a different zone.
Availability zones are designed so that if one zone is affected, regional services, capacity, and high availability are supported by the remaining two zones. Each Azure region usually consists of three availability zones.
How would you identify underutilized resources?
Azure Advisor
Name the authorization methods available for azcopy.
Blob storage: AAD or SAS token
File storage: SAS token is only authorization method that is supported
