Question
You have an HA VPN connection with two tunnels running in active/passive mode between your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and on-premises network. Traffic over the connection has recently increased from 1 gigabit per second (Gbps) to 4 Gbps, and you notice that packets are being dropped. You need to configure your VPN connection to Google Cloud to support 4 Gbps. What should you do?
Options
- AConfigure the remote autonomous system number (ASN) to 4096.
- BConfigure a second Cloud Router to scale bandwidth in and out of the VPC.
- CConfigure the maximum transmission unit (MTU) to its highest supported value.
- DConfigure a second set of active/passive VPN tunnels.
