Basic LB supports IP6 https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/load-balancer/load-balancer-ipv6-overview However MS never let us learn to deploy a "Basic" anything so no doubt their answer is Standard, not to mention on September 30, 2025, Basic Load Balancer will be retired.

Basic is usually just to show you how it works. Commercial products have enhanced security, where most resources are hidden from the Internet, so in this case there is little chance to see a Basic LB there and much higher change to see a Standard one.

C Standard https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/load-balancer/virtual-network-ipv4-ipv6-dual-stack-standard-load-balancer-powershell#create-a-load-balancer-rule Basic load balancer uses an IPv4 probe to assess health for both IPv4 and IPv6 endpoints on the VMs. Standard load balancer includes support for explicitly IPv6 health probes.

What is not clear in the question is, what type of traffic will be load balanced. I.e. whether its layer 4 or HTTP/S. Because App GW v2 also internally deployable, only to load balance intra VNET traffic, therefore D also could be a valid answer.

C Azure Standard LB because secure by default , closed to inbound flows unless allowed by an NSG group. Internal traffic from VNet to the internal LB is allowed

C. In this link https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machine-scale-sets/virtual-machine-scale-sets-placement-groups explains the Standard LB can use large VMSS (to 1000 VMs) against the (normal) VMSS (100 VMs) and also it has a NSG associated to filter only inboudn traffic coming from the VNET. Futhermore, the stament doesn't say it's web traffic, so only option is C, if it would say web traffic it could be D as well.
