What this test covers
One concept per question. If you can explain each of these without hesitating, you are in good shape on Networking.
- Global HTTP(S) traffic with one anycast address means the global Application Load Balancer
- Firewall rules are evaluated by priority, lowest number first, and the first match wins
- Implied firewall rules deny all ingress and allow all egress
- Pass-through load balancing preserves the client source address and supports UDP
- TTL determines how long resolvers cache an answer, so it must be lowered before a change
- Cache keys determine what counts as the same request
- Cloud NAT provides outbound-only internet access for instances without public addresses
- Shared VPC centralises network control while devolving resource management
- VPC peering is non-transitive by design
