300-710 SNCF Deployment Practice Question
When deploying a Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense virtual appliance (FPRv) in a public cloud environment such as Microsoft Azure, which TWO architectural considerations or limitations must be accounted for? (Choose two)
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
User-Defined Routes (UDRs) in Azure must be configured to point traffic destined for other subnets to the FTDv internal interface IP.
Azure deployments have specific constraints regarding throughput licensing models, interface requirements (Management, Inside, Outside), and lack of native support for certain on-prem features like traditional physical clustering.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
User-Defined Routes (UDRs) in Azure must be configured to point traffic destined for other subnets to the FTDv internal interface IP.
Why this is correct
Azure virtual networks rely on User-Defined Routes to steer traffic through the virtual firewall appliance.
- ✓
A minimum of three distinct network interfaces (Management, Inside, and Outside) must be configured in Azure.
Why this is correct
Azure deployments require at least three network interfaces for proper packet handling and management isolation.
- ✗
The FTDv management interface can be shared with the data plane traffic if bandwidth optimization is enabled.
Why it's wrong here
The management interface must remain strictly separated from data interfaces in cloud deployments.
- ✗
Physical clustering using dedicated control interfaces is natively supported in Azure just like on-prem hardware.
Why it's wrong here
Clustering of FTDv in public clouds like Azure differs from physical hardware clustering and has specific cloud-based HA mechanisms.
- ✗
Dynamic routing protocols (BGP/OSPF) are entirely unsupported on virtual appliances deployed in public clouds.
Why it's wrong here
BGP and OSPF are fully supported on FTDv deployed in Azure and AWS.
