C is the correct answer as the MS article clearly states that a publicly available DNS name must be used, that is only available on an External LB, not an Internal LB

But the question says they are not accessible from the internet. Why does it depend on public DNS when it is not accessible from the web?

that's the ask of this question to make it accessible. ILB cannot be the backend of AFD, only public resource is allowed.

ILB can be the backend of AFD. This might not have been the case when this was originally created, but it is true today. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/frontdoor/standard-premium/how-to-enable-private-link-internal-load-balancer

C is correct. MS FAQ Can we deploy Azure Load Balancer behind Front Door? Azure Front Door needs a public VIP or a publicly available DNS name to route the traffic to. Deploying an Azure Load Balancer behind Front Door is a common use case.

Yes, you can find confirmation on the Fron Door Faq Page: "Can we deploy Azure Load Balancer behind Front Door? Azure Front Door needs a public VIP or a publicly available DNS name to route the traffic to. Deploying an Azure Load Balancer behind Front Door is a common use case. ... What resources are supported today as part of backend pool? Backend pools can be composed of Storage, Web App, Kubernetes instances, or any other custom hostname that has public connectivity. Azure Front Door requires that the backends are defined either via a public IP or a publicly resolvable DNS hostname. Members of backend pools can be across zones, regions, or even outside of Azure as long as they have public connectivity." https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/frontdoor/front-door-faq

B is correct: what do they mean with behind in "When should we deploy an Application Gateway behind Front Door?" i think it they mean, the load needs to be devided between the servers on the region see: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/frontdoor/front-door-faq

You're right. The statement "Currently, the virtual machines are inaccessible from the internet." is just to throw us off the real question. The question does not ask for us to make the machines accessible from the internet. We "need to use Azure Front Door to load balance requests for App1 across all the virtual machines", all of this will happen internally. So I will go with B

Answer B is correct if looking at the diagram https://i.stack.imgur.com/UPecj.png Front-door with the public IP that provides multi-regional load balancing + behind it can be regional load balancing with the internal load balancer. The question should be clear. If the question is asking what additional features the front-door should have which means public-load-balancer then answer C is correct. I don't like the confusing questions.

B : Look at the decision tree https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/architecture/guide/technology-choices/load-balancing-overview?toc=%2fazure%2ffrontdoor%2fstandard-premium%2ftoc.json and read about IaaS definition it says internal load balancer. So, using B is still possible.

I go with B. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/architecture/guide/technology-choices/load-balancing-overview IaaS. Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) is a computing option where you provision the VMs that you need, along with associated network and storage components. IaaS applications require internal load balancing within a virtual network, using Azure Load Balancer.
