Question 1 of 110

SIMULATION -
A company has decided to scale its e-commerce application from its corporate datacenter to a commercial cloud provider to meet an anticipated increase in demand during an upcoming holiday.
The majority of the application load takes place on the application server under normal conditions. For this reason, the company decides to deploy additional application servers into a commercial cloud provider using the on-premises orchestration engine that installs and configures common software and network configurations.
The remote computing environment is connected to the on-premises datacenter via a site-to-site IPSec tunnel. The external DNS provider has been configured to use weighted round-robin routing to load balance connections from the Internet.
During testing, the company discovers that only 20% of connections completed successfully.

INSTRUCTIONS -
Review the network architecture and supporting documents and fulfill these requirements:
Part 1:
✑ Analyze the configuration of the following components: DNS, Firewall 1, Firewall 2, Router 1, Router 2, VPN and Orchestrator Server.
✑ Identify the problematic device(s).
Part 2:
✑ Identify the correct options to provide adequate configuration for hybrid cloud architecture.

Correct Answer:

The main issue in the network setup is with Router 2. The address space configuration is incorrect and should be corrected. Additionally, the pre-shared key (PSK) in Router 2 should match that of Router 1 for the IPSec tunnel to work properly. Therefore, the necessary steps are: Change the Address Space on Router 2 to 10.1.2.0/24, and Update the PSK (Pre-shared key) in Router 2 to 'Cloud001' to match Router 1. This will ensure proper routing and secure VPN communication between the datacenter and the cloud.

Question 2 of 110

SIMULATION -
The QA team is testing a newly implemented clinical trial management (CTM) SaaS application that uses a business intelligence application for reporting. The
UAT users were instructed to use HTTP and HTTPS.
Refer to the application dataflow:
1A "" The end user accesses the application through a web browser to enter and view clinical data.
2A "" The CTM application server reads/writes data to/from the database server.
1B "" The end user accesses the application through a web browser to run reports on clinical data.
2B "" The CTM application server makes a SOAP call on a non-privileged port to the BI application server.
3B "" The BI application server gets the data from the database server and presents it to the CTM application server.
When UAT users try to access the application using https://ctm.app.com or http://ctm.app.com, they get a message stating: "Browser cannot display the webpage." The QA team has raised a ticket to troubleshoot the issue.

INSTRUCTIONS -
You are a cloud engineer who is tasked with reviewing the firewall rules as well as virtual network settings.
You should ensure the firewall rules are allowing only the traffic based on the dataflow.
You have already verified the external DNS resolution and NAT are working.
Verify and appropriately configure the VLAN assignments and ACLs. Drag and drop the appropriate VLANs to each tier from the VLAN Tags table. Click on each
Firewall to change ACLs as needed.

Exam CV1-003: Question 2 - Image 1

Correct Answer:

The issue here seems to be with the firewall and VLAN configurations. First, let's address the VLAN assignments based on the tiers provided in the diagram. Assign VLAN tags as follows: 1. VLAN 100 to the Network Load Balancers 2. VLAN 101 to the CTM Application Server 3. VLAN 104 to the BI Application Server 4. VLAN 106 to the Database Server Next, review and configure the firewall settings to ensure proper traffic flow based on the dataflow instructions: For Firewall 1, verify the rules are set to allow HTTP and HTTPS traffic. For Firewall 2, allow traffic from the Network Load Balancers (192.168.1.51 and 192.168.1.52) to the CTM Application Server (192.168.2.15) on the appropriate ports. For Firewall 3, allow traffic from the CTM Application Server to the BI Application Server on ports 9400 and 1533. For Firewall 4, ensure traffic from the BI Application Server and the CTM Application Server to the Database Server is allowed over port 1533. Adjust DENY rules to prevent any other traffic as outlined in the instructions. Finally, after making these adjustments, the communication pathways necessary for the application should be correctly configured, and the users should be able to access the application successfully.

Question 3 of 110

A DevOps administrator is automating an existing software development workflow. The administrator wants to ensure that prior to any new code going into production, tests confirm the new code does not negatively impact existing automation activities.
Which of the following testing techniques would be BEST to use?

Usability testing

Regression testing

Vulnerability testing

Penetration testing

Correct Answer: B

Question 4 of 110

A marketing team is using a SaaS-based service to send emails to large groups of potential customers. The internally managed CRM system is configured to generate a list of target customers automatically on a weekly basis, and then use that list to send emails to each customer as part of a marketing campaign. Last week, the first email campaign sent emails successfully to 3,000 potential customers. This week, the email campaign attempted to send out 50,000 emails, but only 10,000 were sent.
Which of the following is the MOST likely reason for not sending all the emails?

API request limit

Incorrect billing account

Misconfigured auto-scaling

Bandwidth limitation

Correct Answer: A

The most likely reason for not sending all the emails is due to an API request limit. SaaS-based services commonly impose limits on the number of API requests that can be made within a certain time period to prevent overloading the system and to ensure fair use of resources. Since the service successfully sent emails to 3,000 customers initially but only managed 10,000 out of 50,000 in the subsequent campaign, it suggests that the limit was reached. The service might have a restriction on the number of emails that can be sent within a specific period, leading to only a portion of the emails being sent out.

Question 5 of 110

A VDI administrator has received reports of poor application performance.
Which of the following should the administrator troubleshoot FIRST?

The network environment

Container resources

Client devices

Server resources

Correct Answer: D

In a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) setup, the performance of applications accessed on virtual desktops is highly dependent on server resources. Since all processing and data handling are performed on the server, any issues with server resources—such as CPU, memory, or disk I/O constraints—can directly impact application performance. Therefore, the first area to troubleshoot for poor application performance should be the server resources.
