Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
You manage several virtual machines in an Azure virtual network that are not accessible from the internet. You need to securely connect to these virtual machines directly from the Azure portal without exposing them to the internet. What should you deploy to meet this requirement?
Configure an Application Gateway to provide access.
Implement a VPN Gateway for remote connectivity.
Set up a jumpbox virtual machine accessible from the internet.
Deploying Azure Bastion to the virtual network allows secure, browser-based RDP or SSH access to your virtual machines through the Azure portal without assigning public IP addresses to the VMs. Azure Bastion establishes the session over TLS, keeping all traffic inside the virtual network.
An Azure Application Gateway is a layer-7 load balancer for web traffic and cannot be used for remote desktop or SSH connectivity. Creating a jump-server VM that is reachable from the public internet would expose a VM to the very risk you are trying to eliminate. Implementing a VPN gateway provides secure tunneling but still requires a VPN client on the administrator's device and does not give direct portal-based access.
