Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Create cloud-side VPN gateway, then create on-premises gateway representation, then configure on-premises VPN device, then create VPN connection, then configure routing.
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because you must first establish the cloud-side gateway, then represent the on-premises gateway in the cloud, configure the on-premises device with the cloud gateway details, create the connection to pair them, and finally update routing to enable traffic flow.
- ✗
Create cloud-side VPN gateway, then create on-premises gateway representation, then create VPN connection, then configure on-premises VPN device, then configure routing.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because creating the VPN connection before configuring the on-premises device would cause the connection to be established without the proper device settings, leading to authentication or IPsec mismatch errors.
- ✗
Create on-premises gateway representation, then create cloud-side VPN gateway, then configure on-premises VPN device, then create VPN connection, then configure routing.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because the cloud-side gateway must be created first, as the on-premises gateway representation references the cloud gateway's endpoint. Starting with the on-premises representation would lack the necessary cloud-side configuration.
- ✗
Create cloud-side VPN gateway, then configure on-premises VPN device, then create on-premises gateway representation, then create VPN connection, then configure routing.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because configuring the on-premises device before creating the on-premises gateway representation in the cloud would mean the device configuration lacks the cloud gateway's public IP and tunnel settings, which are required for successful setup.
