Goal:Stable endpoint for MySQL DB with HA failover support.

Endpoint Options:

Public IP:Exposed, changes on failover; unsuitable.

DNS with Floating IP:Persistent across failovers; ideal.

Private IP:Tied to primary, fails on switch; incorrect.

Service Gateway:For OCI services, not MySQL DB; incorrect.

Evaluate Options:

A:Public exposure, no HA; incorrect.

B:Floating private IP with DNS ensures continuity; correct.

C:Static IP breaks on failover; incorrect.

D:Misaligned purpose; incorrect.

Conclusion:DNS with floating IP is most suitable.

MySQL DB in OCI uses floating IPs for HA. The Oracle Networking Professional study guide explains, "A DNS hostname resolving to the floating private IP of the active MySQL Database Service instance ensures seamless connectivity during failover events" (OCI Networking Documentation, Section: MySQL Database Service HA). This provides predictability and stability.

Symptoms:VPN tunnel drops intermittently despite stable internet and IKE settings.

VPN Components:Requires IKE (UDP 500/4500) and ESP (IP 50) traffic.

Evaluate Options:

A:Incorrect CPE IP would prevent tunnel establishment, not intermittent drops; incorrect.

B:DRG outage would cause full downtime, not intermittent; unlikely.

C:Security rules blocking IKE/ESP intermittently (e.g., rate limiting) is common; most likely.

D:NAT-Traversal issues typically prevent initial setup, not intermittent drops; less likely.

Conclusion:Security rule misconfiguration is the most probable cause.

VPN stability depends on unblocked IKE and ESP traffic. The Oracle Networking Professional study guide notes, "Intermittent VPN tunnel drops are often caused by security rules or firewalls blocking IKE (UDP 500/4500) or ESP (IP Protocol 50) traffic" (OCI Networking Documentation, Section: Site-to-Site VPN Troubleshooting). This aligns with the scenario’s symptoms.

Objective: Identify the OCI component for dynamic routing in a hybrid setup.

Option A: Internet Gateway enables public internet access, not private hybrid routing—incorrect.

Option B: DRG is a virtual router that dynamically routes traffic between on-premises networks and VCNs via FastConnect or VPN, using protocols like BGP—correct.

Option C: Service Gateway provides private access to OCI services, not on-premises connectivity—incorrect.

Option D: LPG peers VCNs within the same region, not with on-premises—incorrect.

Conclusion: DRG is essential for hybrid dynamic routing.

Oracle documentation confirms:

"The Dynamic Routing Gateway (DRG) enables dynamic routing between your on-premises network and VCNs, supporting hybrid cloud connectivity via FastConnect or VPN."This validates Option B. Reference:Dynamic Routing Gateway Overview - Oracle Help Center(docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Network/Tasks/managingDRGs.htm).

Requirements:Low-latency, minimal overhead for TCP connections, no session persistence.

Load Balancer Types:

Application Load Balancer (ALB):Layer 7, higher overhead, suited for HTTP/HTTPS.

Network Load Balancer (NLB):Layer 4, low overhead, ideal for TCP/UDP.

Evaluate Options:

A:ALB with HTTP checks is for HTTP traffic, adds overhead; unsuitable.

B:NLB with TCP checks is optimized for TCP, low latency; best fit.

C:ALB with TCP checks still has Layer 7 overhead; less efficient.

D:“Flexible Load Balancer” isn’t a specific OCI service; incorrect.

Conclusion:NLB minimizes latency and overhead for TCP connections.

The Network Load Balancer is designed for high-performance TCP scenarios. The Oracle Networking Professional study guide states, "Network Load Balancer operates at Layer 4, providing low-latency, high-throughput load balancing for TCP/UDP traffic with minimal overhead, ideal for database connections" (OCI Networking Documentation, Section: Load Balancing). TCP health checks ensure instance availability without session persistence complexity.

Goal:Inspect NSG rules for a VNIC from Cloud Shell.

Command Flow:

Get instance → Extract VNIC → List NSGs → Get NSG details.

Evaluate Options:

A:Direct NSG fetch lacks VNIC linkage; incomplete.

B:Full pipeline from instance to NSG details; precise and correct.

C:Grep is too basic, misses structure; incorrect.

D:Awk parsing is fragile, less reliable than jq; less optimal.

Conclusion:Option B provides the most robust inspection.

CLI with jq ensures accurate NSG retrieval. The Oracle Networking Professional study guide notes, "To troubleshoot NSG rules, use the OCI CLI to fetch instance VNIC details and associated NSG configurations, piping through jq for structured output" (OCI Networking Documentation, Section: CLI Troubleshooting). Option B follows this methodology.

Goal: Secure, granular access control to ADB from private subnet instances.

Option A: Public endpoint with NSGs exposes ADB to the internet, increasing risk despite NSG restrictions—less secure than private options.

Option B: Service Gateway provides private access to OCI services, but it’s not specific to ADB instances and lacks the instance-level granularity of private endpoints.

Option C: Private ADB endpoint assigns a private IP within the VCN, keeping traffic internal. NSGs allow precise, stateful control to specific instances, offering the most granular security.

Option D: DRG is for external connections (e.g., on-premises), not internal VCN-to-ADB access.

Conclusion: Option C provides the most secure and granular control.

Oracle documentation notes:

"Private endpoints for Autonomous Database provide a private IP within your VCN, ensuring traffic stays off the public internet. Use NSGs for fine-grained access control to specific instances."This supports Option C. Reference:Autonomous Database Networking - Oracle Help Center(docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Database/Tasks/adbconnecting.htm).

Requirements: HA and IPv6 support for public web app.

Option A: ULA is private, not routable; NAT for IPv6 is inefficient—incorrect.

Option B: ULA doesn’t support public IPv6 clients—incorrect.

Option C: Public IPv6 CIDR is correct, but IPv4-only LB with NAT lacks direct IPv6—less resilient.

Option D: Public IPv6 CIDR with dual-stack LB and instances ensures full IPv6 support and HA across ADs—correct.

Conclusion: Option D maximizes resilience and connectivity.

Oracle states:

"For public IPv6 applications, use a public IPv6 CIDR block and configure Load Balancers and instances for both IPv4 and IPv6 to ensure resilience."This supports Option D. Reference:IPv6 in OCI - Oracle Help Center(docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Network/Tasks/managingIPv6.htm).

Problem: Instances with IPv6-only traffic can’t ping external IPv6 addresses despite FastConnect and IPv6 prefixes.

Option A: OCI supports Bring Your Own IP (BYOIP) for IPv6, including global unicast addresses, so this is incorrect.

Option B: NAT Gateways are for IPv4 outbound traffic, not IPv6—irrelevant here.

Option C: For IPv6-only instances to reach external IPv6 addresses (beyond FastConnect),an Internet Gateway (IGW) is required with a default route (::/0) in the subnet route table. This enables public IPv6 connectivity—correct.

Option D: Service Gateway is for OCI services, not general IPv6 internet access—incorrect.

Conclusion: Option C fixes the issue by enabling IPv6 internet access.

Oracle states:

"To enable IPv6 traffic to the internet, attach an Internet Gateway to the VCN and add a route rule for ::/0. OCI supports BYOIP for public IPv6 prefixes."This aligns with Option C. Reference:IPv6 in OCI - Oracle Help Center(docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Network/Tasks/managingIPv6.htm).
