An administrator must connect two virtual networks that sit in two different Azure regions so resources in each can reach the other directly. Which connectivity option meets this requirement?

  • AConfigure global virtual network peering between the two virtual networks Correct
  • BConfigure regional virtual network peering between the two virtual networks
  • CConfigure a service endpoint on a subnet in each virtual network
  • DConfigure a point-to-site VPN between the two virtual networks
Global virtual network peering is the option for connecting virtual networks that are in different Azure regions. The grounding states Azure supports global virtual network peering to connect virtual networks across Azure regions, whereas regular virtual network peering connects virtual networks within the same region.

Why A is correct: Correct. The grounding states Azure supports global virtual network peering to connect virtual networks across Azure regions, whereas regular virtual network peering connects virtual networks within the same region.

Why B is wrong: Regional virtual network peering connects virtual networks within the same Azure region, so it cannot join networks in different regions.

Why C is wrong: A service endpoint extends a subnet to an Azure service resource and does not interconnect two virtual networks for direct resource-to-resource traffic.

Why D is wrong: Point-to-site VPN is established between a virtual network and a single computer, not between two virtual networks for general connectivity.
