1Z0-1072-26 Networking Practice Question
Which TWO networking components are required when establishing an OCI Site-to-Site VPN connection using dynamic routing (BGP)?
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
✓
Dynamic Routing Gateway (DRG) configured with BGP ASN
Site-to-Site VPN with dynamic routing requires a CPE object, a DRG attached to the VCN, an IPSec connection with tunnels configured, and BGP ASN configuration on both the OCI side and CPE side.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Dynamic Routing Gateway (DRG) configured with BGP ASN
Why this is correct
The DRG terminates the VPN and participates in BGP dynamic routing.
- ✗
Internet Gateway attached to private subnets
Why it's wrong here
VPNs route through the DRG, not Internet Gateways.
- ✗
Local Peering Gateway (LPG)
Why it's wrong here
LPGs are for VCN-to-VCN peering.
- ✓
Customer-Premises Equipment (CPE) object
Why this is correct
The CPE object defines the on-premises peer gateway IP.
- ✗
NAT Gateway for BGP packet translation
Why it's wrong here
NAT Gateways are not used for BGP or VPN routing.
Quick reference
VPN Protocol Comparison
| Protocol | Port | Encryption | Authentication | Use Case |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IKEv2 / IPsec | UDP 500 / 4500 | AES-256 | Certificates / PSK | Site-to-site & remote access |
| SSL / TLS VPN | TCP 443 | TLS 1.3 | Certificates / MFA | Clientless remote access |
| L2TP / IPsec | UDP 1701 | AES (IPsec) | PSK / Certificates | Legacy remote access |
| WireGuard | UDP 51820 | ChaCha20 | Public keys | Modern high-performance VPN |
| PPTP | TCP 1723 | MPPE (weak) | MS-CHAPv2 | Legacy — avoid in production |
PPTP is considered insecure. IKEv2/IPsec and SSL VPN are the current recommended options.
