The correct answer is VM3 can establish a network connection to VM1. = Yes; If VM3 is turned off, VM2 can establish a network connection to VM1. = No; VM1 can establish a network connection to VM2. = Yes. VM3 is on Subnet3, which does NOT have RT1 applied, so VM3's traffic to VM1 follows default VNet routing and can reach VM1 on Subnet1 directly - making statement 1 'Yes'. VM1 can reach VM2 because RT1 is applied to Subnet1 and contains a route directing traffic to Subnet2 via…

Question

Hotspot Question You have an Azure subscription named Subscription1. Subscription1 contains the virtual machines in the following table: Subscription1 contains a virtual network named VNet1 that has the subnets in the following table: VM3 has multiple network adapters, including a network adapter named NIC3. IP forwarding is enabled on NIC3. Routing is enabled on VM3. You create a route table named RT1 that contains the routes in the following table: You apply RT1 to Subnet1 and Subnet2. For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point. Answer:

Answer Area

  • VM3 can establish a network connection to VM1.Yes
  • If VM3 is turned off, VM2 can establish a network connection to VM1.No
  • VM1 can establish a network connection to VM2.Yes

Explanation

VM3 is on Subnet3, which does NOT have RT1 applied, so VM3's traffic to VM1 follows default VNet routing and can reach VM1 on Subnet1 directly - making statement 1 'Yes'. VM1 can reach VM2 because RT1 is applied to Subnet1 and contains a route directing traffic to Subnet2 via VM3 (NIC3 with IP forwarding and routing enabled), so the path exists - making statement 3 'Yes'. However, if VM3 is turned off, the route in RT1 that uses VM3 as the next hop becomes unavailable; since RT1 overrides default VNet routing for Subnet1 and Subnet2, VM2 cannot fall back to direct VNet routing to reach VM1, making statement 2 'No'.
