- content: Which layer of the OSI model does Azure Load Balancer function at?
19-
choices:
20-
- content: Layer 4
21-
isCorrect: true
22-
explanation: Correct. Load Balancer functions at Layer 4 (transport layer) of the OSI model.
23-
- content: Layer 7
24-
isCorrect: false
25-
explanation: Incorrect. Load Balancer functions at Layer 4 of the OSI model. Other Azure services, such as Azure Application Gateway, can load balance traffic at Layer 7.
26-
- content: Layer 5
27-
isCorrect: false
28-
explanation: Incorrect. Azure Load Balancer functions at Layer 4 of the OSI model. Layer 5 of the OSI model is the session layer that addresses opening, closing, and managing application sessions.
29-
- content: Which of the following components should you configure to ensure that traffic from a specific client computer is always directed to the same server in the back-end pool?
30-
choices:
31-
- content: Health probe
32-
isCorrect: false
33-
explanation: Incorrect. Health probes allow you to determine whether a back-end pool instance is responding to traffic.
34-
- content: High availability port
35-
isCorrect: false
36-
explanation: Incorrect. High availability ports are a type of rule in which all TCP and UDP traffic that arrives on all ports is load balanced.
37-
- content: Session persistence
38-
isCorrect: true
39-
explanation: Correct. Session persistence allows you to ensure that traffic from a client computer interacting with Azure Load Balancer is always forwarded to the same server in the back-end pool.
40-
- content: Which of the following components would you configure to ensure that back-end pool instances that are no longer responding to traffic on TCP port 443 no longer have traffic directed to them by Load Balancer?
41-
choices:
42-
- content: High availability port
43-
isCorrect: false
44-
explanation: Incorrect. High availability ports are a type of rule in which all TCP and UDP traffic that arrives on all ports is load balanced.
45-
- content: Outbound rule
46-
isCorrect: false
47-
explanation: Incorrect. Outbound rules are used to configure traffic flow from back-end pool instances to the internet.
48-
- content: Health probe
49-
isCorrect: true
50-
explanation: Correct. Health probes allow you to determine whether a back-end pool instance is responding to traffic.
