AZ-700 Azure Application Gateway and WAF 2

Question 1

What is the primary benefit of enabling SSL offloading on Azure Application Gateway?

Accepted Answer

Terminating SSL/TLS at the gateway to reduce backend server CPU overhead

Answer

SSL offloading terminates the SSL/TLS connection at the Application Gateway, allowing backend servers to handle unencrypted HTTP traffic and reducing their computational load.

Question 2

What does end-to-end SSL mean in the context of Azure Application Gateway?

Accepted Answer

Traffic is encrypted from the client through the gateway to the backend servers

Answer

End-to-end SSL maintains encrypted HTTPS communication from client to Application Gateway, and the gateway re-encrypts traffic before sending it to backend servers.

Question 3

Which Application Gateway feature allows you to add, remove, or modify HTTP request and response headers as traffic passes through?

Accepted Answer

Rewrite rules

Answer

Rewrite rules allow modification of HTTP request and response headers, as well as URL paths, as traffic flows through Application Gateway.

Question 4

What is the function of a multi-site listener in Azure Application Gateway?

Accepted Answer

Routing traffic from multiple hostnames through a single gateway instance

Answer

Multi-site listeners enable hosting multiple web applications on the same Application Gateway by routing based on the host header in HTTP requests.

Question 5

When you configure a URL redirect rule in Application Gateway, what does the gateway send to the client?

Accepted Answer

An HTTP redirect response instructing the browser to navigate to a different URL

Answer

URL redirect sends an HTTP 301 or 302 redirect response to the client, instructing the browser to request a different URL.
