PL-900 Practice Question: Refer to the exhibit

Exhibit

{
  "policy": {
    "allowedIpAddresses": ["131.107.0.0/16"],
    "disallowedIpAddresses": [],
    "allowedDomains": ["contoso.com"]
  }
}

Refer to the exhibit. An organization is configuring IP address and domain restrictions for a Power Pages site. The policy JSON allows traffic from the 131.107.0.0/16 IP range and from contoso.com domain. A user from IP 192.168.1.10 with an email user@fabrikam.com tries to access the site. What will happen?

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

✓

Access is denied because the IP is not in the allowed range and the domain is not contoso.com

The policy JSON explicitly allows traffic only from IPs in the 131.107.0.0/16 range and from the contoso.com domain. The user's IP (192.168.1.10) is not in that range, and the domain (fabrikam.com) does not match contoso.com. Since both conditions are required (the policy uses an AND logic), access is denied. Therefore, option A is correct.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

✓
Access is denied because the IP is not in the allowed range and the domain is not contoso.com
Why this is correct
Both IP and domain checks fail, so access is denied.
✗
Access is granted because the domain is not disallowed
Why it's wrong here
The policy uses an allow list for domains; only contoso.com is allowed.
✗
Access is granted because one of the conditions could be met
Why it's wrong here
Both conditions must be met or at least one depending on policy logic, but here both are required typically; the policy is restrictive.
✗
Access is granted because the IP is not in the disallowed list
Why it's wrong here
The policy uses an allow list, not a deny list. Not being disallowed does not grant access.
