You are planning the move of App1 to Azure.
You create a network security group (NSG).
You need to recommend a solution to provide users with access to App1.
What should you do?

  • A. Create an incoming security rule for port 443 from the Internet. Associate the NSG to the subnet that contains the web servers.
  • B. Create an outgoing security rule for port 443 from the Internet. Associate the NSG to all the subnets.
  • C. Create an incoming security rule for port 443 from the Internet. Associate the NSG to all the subnets.
  • D. Create an outgoing security rule for port 443 from the Internet. Associate the NSG to the subnet that contains the web servers.

Suggested Answer: A 🗳️
As App1 is public-facing we need an incoming security rule, related to the access of the web servers.
Scenario: You have a public-facing application named App1. App1 is comprised of the following three tiers: a SQL database, a web front end, and a processing middle tier.
Each tier is comprised of five virtual machines. Users access the web front end by using HTTPS only.

where is the key word outgoing here? its incoming to 443 on the web servers. i would think an NSG allowing only access to the specific web servers is required thus their answer A is right.

"You are planning the move of App1 to Azure." These Qs man...you gotta think as if App1 is 'already' in Azure. Therefore it will be an 'incoming' Rule for 'Internet users'. Answer A is correct.

I thought the answer was B? . the key word is outgoing? and to all subnets... this is because inbound port 443 accepts traffic??

Yes, inbound port accepting traffic. if you will assign the NSG to all the subnets you will apply the rules to all the VM's on those subnets

GIven answer is CORRECT: 443 does not accept traffic by default. That needs to be specifically entered into the NSG inbound rules for the web servers to be able to accept traffic fron the internet/public facing app. No need to apply to all subnets as that will be overkill and added ports open that don't need to be.
