An administrator manager a virtual desktop environment running on an NC2 cluster in Azure.
The desktop running on the cluster need to contact resources on-premises through the ExpressRoute that has been setup. The save on bandwidth from the on-premises environment to Azure, the administrator wants the desktops to access the internet through an Azure NAT Gateway.
Which co0nfigruation will best accomplish this task?

1. A. Set the default route of 0.0.0.0/0 for the Nutanix User VPC pointing to the external-No- NAT network.
2. B. Set the default route of 0.0.0.0/0 for the Nutanix User VPC pointing to the external-NAT networ
3. C. Set a route to the on-premises subnet for the Nutanix User VPC pointing to the external-No-NAT network.
4. D. Set the default route of 0.0.0.0/0 for the Nutanix User VPC pointing to the external-NAT networ
5. E. Set a route to the on-premises subnet for the Nutanix User VPC pointing to the external-NAT network.
6. F. Assign all desktops Floating IPs and use an external-NAT network in the transit VP
7. G. Set the default route of 0.0.0.0/0 for the Nutanix User VPC pointing to the external-NAT network.

Correct Answer: B
✑ Default Route for Internet Traffic:By setting the default route of 0.0.0.0/0 for the Nutanix User VPC pointing to the external-NAT network, all internet-bound traffic from the desktops will be routed through the Azure NAT Gateway, conserving bandwidth on the ExpressRoute connection.
✑ On-Premises Route:Setting a specific route to the on-premises subnet for the Nutanix User VPC pointing to the external-No-NAT network ensures that traffic destined for on-premises resources bypasses the NAT Gateway and utilizes the ExpressRoute connection, optimizing the use of network paths.
