- DVirtual machines in the backend pool that are distributed across multiple availability zones
Answer
The correct configurations are: a Basic SKU public IP address associated with the frontend IP configuration, and virtual machines in the backend pool that are all part of the same availability set.
A Basic SKU Load Balancer only supports association with Basic SKU public IP addresses for its frontend IP configuration. Additionally, its backend pool is restricted to virtual machines within the same availability set, virtual machine scale set, or single cloud service.
