Google Cloud Professional Cloud Network Engineer — Question 24

You want to create a service in GCP using IPv6.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Create the instance with the designated IPv6 address.
• B. Configure a TCP Proxy with the designated IPv6 address.
• C. Configure a global load balancer with the designated IPv6 address.
• D. Configure an internal load balancer with the designated IPv6 address.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because a global load balancer in GCP supports IPv6 traffic and can distribute it across multiple instances. Options A and B are incorrect as creating an instance alone or using a TCP Proxy does not provide the same level of traffic management and scalability that a global load balancer does. Option D is also not suitable since an internal load balancer is limited to internal traffic and does not support IPv6 for external access.
