CCSP Cloud Platform and Infrastructure Security Practice Question
A cloud security architect is designing network connectivity between multiple virtual networks in the same region. The requirement is to allow full mesh connectivity with centralized management and the ability to apply network policies. Which service should be used?
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
✓
Transit gateway
A transit gateway acts as a central hub for multiple virtual networks, enabling transitive peering and centralized routing and policy management. Virtual network peering is point-to-point and does not support transitive routing, requiring a full mesh of connections for multiple virtual networks.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Transit gateway
Why this is correct
A transit gateway provides a hub-and-spoke model for multiple VPCs with centralized management.
- ✗
Internet gateway
Why it's wrong here
Internet gateway connects VPC to the internet, not to other VPCs.
- ✗
Virtual network peering
Why it's wrong here
VPC peering is point-to-point and not transitive; full mesh would require many connections.
- ✗
Virtual network endpoint
Why it's wrong here
VPC endpoints provide private access to services, not VPC-to-VPC connectivity.
