Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
You are setting up a virtual network (VNet) in Azure to host multiple virtual machines (VMs). For security compliance, you need to isolate specific groups of VMs from each other while keeping them within the same VNet. What is the best way to achieve this network segmentation?
Use network security groups to block traffic between VMs
Create separate subnets within the VNet for each group of VMs
Configure different virtual network gateways for each group
Creating separate subnets within the same virtual network (VNet) is the best method to segment the network. Subnets allow you to divide the VNet into smaller, isolated sections where you can place groups of VMs. This facilitates internal isolation and enables you to apply subnet-specific network security policies. Deploying separate VNets would isolate the VMs but would complicate management and inter-VNet communication. Using network security groups (NSGs) helps control traffic but doesn't inherently provide network segmentation based on IP addressing. Configuring different virtual network gateways is unnecessary for isolating groups within the same VNet.
