Question

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution. After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen. You have an app named App1 that is installed on two Azure virtual machines named VM1 and VM2. Connections to App1 are managed by using an Azure Load Balancer. The effective network security configurations for VM2 are shown in the following exhibit. You discover that connections to App1 from 131.107.100.50 over TCP port 443 fail. You verify that the Load Balancer rules are configured correctly. You need to ensure that connections to App1 can be established successfully from 131.107.100.50 over TCP port 443. Solution: You create an inbound security rule that allows any traffic from the AzureLoadBalancer source and has a cost of 150. Does this meet the goal?

Explanation

The rule with priority 200 blocks all inbound trafic. That involves the Azure Load Balancer health probe directed to the VM. That results in VM2 being considered unhealthy and the LB does not route traffic to it (hence the issue). By placing a rule with the priority 150 that allows the AzureLoadBalancer traffic tag, VM2 is discovered as functional/healthy, the LB directs traffic to it => problem solved.
