You are designing a Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster for a rapidly scaling microservices application. The application will have thousands of pods and hundreds of services. The application requires internal pod-to-pod communication and exposure of services internally. You want to follow Google's recommended approach to ensure efficient IP address utilization within your existing Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) subnet while leveraging Google Cloud's native networking capabilities. What should you do?

• A. Configure the GKE cluster to use a VPC-native mode with the main subnets primary IP range for nodes, and separate secondary IP ranges for pods and services.
• B. Allocate a primary IP address range for the entire cluster to encompass both node, pod, and service IP addresses.
• C. Deploy a route-based GKE cluster and rely on GKE-managed routing tables for all pod and service communication.
• D. Implement a mesh of Istio service proxies on every pod to manage all internal pod-to-pod communication and service discovery.

You are integrating your company's on-premises SD-WAN fabric with Google Cloud to route traffic from application VPCs to your on-premises network. The SD-WAN appliance is already deployed as a virtual machine in a central hub VPC. You want to minimize operational complexity by using the SD-WAN virtual appliance for policy enforcement and dynamic route exchange.
What should you do?

• A. Establish a direct HA VPN connection from the application VPCs to the on-premises data center, and configure BGP to exchange dynamic routes directly.
• B. Place the SD-WAN appliance that is in the hub VPC in a backend service behind an internal passthrough Network Load Balancer. Create a custom route in the spoke VPC that uses the load balancer as the next hop.
• C. Create a Network Connectivity Center hub in the hub VPC, and register the SD-WAN virtual machine as a router appliance hybrid spoke. Add the application networks to the hub as VPC spokes.
• D. Peer the central hub and application VPCs. Create a static route in the application VPCs for the on-premises CIDR range with the next-hop set to the internal IP address of the SD-WAN appliance.

Your company recently migrated to Google Cloud in a single region. You configured separate Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) networks for two departments: Department A and Department B.
Department A has requested access to resources that are part of Department B's VPC. You need to configure the traffic from private IP addresses to flow between the VPCs using multi-NIC virtual machines (VMs) to meet security requirements. Your configuration also must:
- Support both TCP and UDP protocols
- Provide fully automated failover
- Include health-checks
- Require minimal manual intervention in the client VMs
Which approach should you take?

• A. Create the VMs in different zones, and configure static routes with instance names as next hops.
• B. Create the VMs in the same zone, and configure static routes with IP addresses as next hops.
• C. Create an instance template and a managed instance group. Configure a single internal load balancer, and define a custom static route with the internal TCP/UDP load balancer as the next hop.
• D. Create an instance template and a managed instance group. Configure two separate internal TCP/UDP load balancers for each protocol (TCP/UDP), and configure the client VMs to use the internal load balancers' virtual IP addresses.

Your organization relies on a critical Dedicated Interconnect connection for its hybrid cloud strategy. You need to proactively monitor this connection's health and network connectivity to ensure its reliability. You want to be alerted if the light level for an optical transceiver drops below the recommended operational power, or if traffic through the connection suddenly stops. What should you do?

• A. Create an alerting policy in Cloud Monitoring that triggers if the total byte count sent over the VLAN attachment drops to zero.
• B. Build a log-based alert in Cloud Logging that parses Cloud Router logs to detect when BGP keepalive messages are no longer received.
• C. Configure a periodic connectivity test in the Network Intelligence Center to ping an on-premises host and alert based on its success rate.
• D. Create alerting policies in Cloud Monitoring based on the metrics for both the optical power level of the physical link and the BGP session state of the VLAN attachment.
