Difficulty: EasyConfigure Azure Load Balancer

You provision a public IP address named IP-Pub1 and select the Standard SKU. You now need to set up a new Azure Load Balancer that will utilize IP-Pub1 as its frontend configuration. Which load balancer SKU must you select to ensure compatibility with IP-Pub1?

  1. StandardAnswer
  2. B
    Basic
  3. C
    Gateway
  4. D
    Premium

Answer

Standard
The correct answer is Standard. In Azure, the SKU of the public IP address must match the SKU of the load balancer. Since the public IP address is created using the Standard SKU, the load balancer must also be deployed using the Standard SKU.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the SKU of the public IP address being used.
The public IP address IP-Pub1 is configured with the Standard SKU.
Compatibility requirements in Azure dictate that frontend IP configurations and the load balancer resource itself must use matching SKUs.
2
Determine the supported Load Balancer SKU for Standard IP addresses.
Standard public IP addresses can only be bound to a Standard Load Balancer.
Mixing a Basic SKU load balancer with a Standard SKU public IP is not supported by Azure.

Key Concept

Azure Load Balancer SKU compatibility requires that the frontend public IP address SKU matches the load balancer SKU (Standard public IPs require Standard Load Balancers).
