Exam Associate Cloud Engineer topic 1 question 82 discussion

A: Expand the existing subnet. https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/compute/networks/subnets/expand-ip-range

A. Use gcloud to expand the IP range of the current subnet.

The correct answer is A. Use gcloud to expand the IP range of the current subnet. Expanding the primary IPv4 address range of a subnet does not cause a break or gap in network connectivity2. DHCP leases are not broken. IP addresses of running VMs at the time of the expansion do not change. You cannot “un-expand” or contract the range after it’s expanded. Expansion is permanent.

The correct answer is A

A is correct , as you need to expand it

gcloud compute networks subnets expand-ip-range NAME --prefix-length=PREFIX_LENGTH [--region=REGION] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]

You can't expand the subnet because the question states "The current subnet has no more free IP addresses", correct answer is C.

Use gcloud to expand the IP range of the current subnet.

A. Use gcloud to expand the IP range of the current subnet.

Answer A (Use gcloud to expand the IP range of the current subnet): This option is correct because it allows you to expand the primary IP range of the existing subnet to accommodate the additional 10 IP addresses required for the new VMs. This can be done without deleting or recreating the subnet, which saves time and avoids disrupting any existing resources that are using the subnet.

A To get an additional 10 IP addresses for new VMs running in a subnet that has no more free IP addresses and where existing and new VMs should be able to reach each other without additional routes, you should use gcloud to expand the IP range of the current subnet. This can be achieved by modifying the IP range of the subnet with the gcloud command-line tool. You can use the following command to increase the range of the subnet: gcloud compute networks subnets expand [SUBNET_NAME] --range=[NEW_IP_RANGE] Make sure to specify the name of the subnet you want to modify, and choose a new IP range that includes the current range and 10 additional IP addresses.

A 100%

A: Expand the existing subnet.

expand the IP range of the current subnet

Why in the world would C be the answer? A is def the answer.

A. is correct, gcloud compute networks subnets expand-ip-range - expand the IP range of a Compute Engine subnetwork gcloud compute networks subnets expand-ip-range NAME --prefix-length=PREFIX_LENGTH [--region=REGION] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]

correct answer is A. Use gcloud to expand the IP range of the current subnet.
