Difficulty: EasyConfigure Azure Load Balancer

An administrator is deploying a public Azure Load Balancer using the Standard SKU. The administrator needs to configure the frontend IP configuration for the load balancer. Which Public IP address SKU must the administrator select to support this configuration?

  1. Standard SKU onlyAnswer
  2. B
    Basic SKU only
  3. C
    Either Basic or Standard SKU
  4. D
    Premium SKU only

Answer

Standard SKU only
Standard Azure Load Balancers require Standard SKU Public IP addresses for their frontend IP configurations. Azure does not support mixing SKUs (e.g., using a Basic SKU Public IP with a Standard SKU Load Balancer).

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the SKU of the load balancer being deployed.
The load balancer uses the Standard SKU.
The load balancer SKU determines the supported SKUs for associated resources like frontend IP configurations and backend pools.
2
Determine the SKU compatibility requirements for the frontend public IP address.
Standard Load Balancers require Standard SKU Public IP addresses.
Azure enforces SKU matching between the Load Balancer and the Public IP resource to ensure consistent performance, SLA, and feature availability.
