The correct answer is Delete all the existing endpoints.; Configure geographic routing.; Add new endpoints that have geographic region mapping.. To route traffic from Asia to an Australian endpoint, you must switch ATM1 from Performance routing (lowest latency) to Geographic routing, which requires deleting all existing endpoints first because Traffic Manager does not allow changing the routing method while endpoints are

Question

Drag and Drop Question You have an Azure subscription that contains an Azure Traffic Manager profile named ATM1 and a web app named App1. ATM1 manages App1 traffic. ATM1 is configured to route callers to the endpoint that has the lowest latency. You need to configure ATM1 to route all traffic from Asia to an endpoint in Australia. Which three actions should you perform in sequence from the Azure portal? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order. Answer:

Answer Area

Drag items

Add new endpoints that have geographic region mapping.Decrease the TTL value of the DNS records for App1.Configure performance routing.Delete all the existing endpoints.Configure geographic routing.

Correct arrangement

  • Delete all the existing endpoints.
  • Configure geographic routing.
  • Add new endpoints that have geographic region mapping.

Explanation

To route traffic from Asia to an Australian endpoint, you must switch ATM1 from Performance routing (lowest latency) to Geographic routing, which requires deleting all existing endpoints first because Traffic Manager does not allow changing the routing method while endpoints are active. Once the profile is reconfigured for Geographic routing, you add new endpoints with explicit geographic region mappings (e.g., mapping 'Asia' to the Australian endpoint). This three-step sequence is the only supported way to change routing methods in Azure Traffic Manager.
