Quiz 2
Graded Assignment
1. You want to provide access to services that you created in a VPC network. The services should be available to other specified VPC networks through endpoints that have internal IP addresses. Some of these VPC networks have subnets with overlapping internal IP addresses. Which product can you use?
- Private Service Connect ✅
- Private services access
- A: Private Google Access
- Cloud NAT
Explanation:
Private Service Connect (PSC) enables you to expose services in your VPC using internal IP addresses, and allows clients from other VPCs, including ones with overlapping IP ranges, to access them securely and privately. It’s designed specifically for scenarios where overlapping IP ranges exist and you want to avoid VPC Peering.
2. To enable Private Google Access for a VPC network:
- Enable it on all desired subnets in the VPC network. ✅
- Enable it on the VPC network, on the desired subnets, and on Cloud Router.
- Enable it on all desired subnets and on Cloud Router.
- A: Enable it on the VPC network.
Explanation:
Private Google Access is configured at the subnet level, not the whole VPC. You must enable it on each subnet where you want VMs (without external IPs) to access Google services like APIs or GCR.
3. Private services access automatically configures which Google Cloud product to implement communication between the producer and consumer VPC networks?
- Shared VPC
- VPC Network Peering ✅
- Cloud NAT
- Private Google Access
Explanation:
Private services access is used to connect your VPC to Google-managed services (like Cloud SQL, Memorystore) using internal IPs. It automatically sets up VPC Network Peering between your VPC (consumer) and the Google-managed VPC (producer).
