BDE https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/load-balancer/load-balancer-outbound-connections

BDE will be correct. A is wrong You need Health Probe when you have inbound connection B is correct you have to provide the pool members C is wrong You do not need any inbound traffic D is correct you need to allow for outbound traffic E is Correct You need to manage the traffic. F is wrong Route can be assigned for a target through internet, VirtAppliance, VNet Also, check this below https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/load-balancer/load-balancer-outbound-connections

In today's exam. Score 900+ Correct answer. BDE

I have configured in my lab, B and D is enough for all the virtual machines to the internet flows through LB1, no Inbound NAT rule that will prevent the VM being accessible on the internet. if we have to choose another one, only E makes sense. (but not necessary), (I have not use any NSC for my lab setup, no NSG for subnet, nor VM NIC). E (NSG) also prevent someone configure Inbound NAT for the VM, this will prevent access from internet, even inbound NAT is configured. You can test the above with bastion host to the VM. A, C, E (will certainly apply for inbound flow load balancing). A Add health probes to LB1. only apply to inbound flow. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/load-balancer/load-balancer-custom-probe-overview Generate a custom response to a health probe. Use the health probe for flow control to manage load or planned downtime. When a health probe fails, the load balancer will stop sending new connections to the respective unhealthy instance. Outbound connectivity isn't affected, only inbound.

In the exam on 12-03-2022. Total 50 questions including case study. "Litware Acquired Fabricam" case study.

Standard load balancers and standard public IP addresses are closed to inbound connections unless opened by Network Security Groups..So NSG is required but health probe can be optional

ABC is the answer. to create a standard load balancer we need to set up the health probe, create the pool and create an inbound balancing rule https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/load-balancer/quickstart-load-balancer-standard-public-portal?tabs=option-1-create-load-balancer-standard

I think BDE

i would go with the given answers

BDE are correct, as expained by cloudcuckooland and andyR

I'd like to put a different perspective on this and answer B D and F. Tried this in a lab...set up LB inc FE config (so gave it a public IP address)...set up B config and added one VM only...added this into the BE of the LB and added outbound rule...so far so good.....then went into VM and checked the effective routing.....sure enough....0.0.0.0 was still via Internet.....I believe that to route Internet outbound via the LB, you have to create a UDR (UDR's are at the subnet level) with 0.0.0.0/0 and put the public IP address of the LB as the next hop....and then associate to the subnet...went back into the VM and checked the effective route.....0.0.0.0 via LB....could be wrong though...just my logic.

Answer is B, D, E

BDE is correct: https://msazure.club/addendum-of-azure-load-balancer-and-nsg-rules/
