Oracle Cloud Infrastructure 2021 Multicloud Architect Associate — Question 20

You have been monitoring your company's applications running in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and notice that the application is using OCI Traffic
Management service. This service uses a traffic steering policy to distribute the DNS traffic based on subnet addresses in a rule set.
Which steering policy is in use in this particular case? (Choose the best answer.)

Answer options

• A. Load Balancing policy
• B. Geolocation steering
• C. ASN steering policy
• D. IP Prefix steering

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, IP Prefix steering, as it specifically uses subnet addresses for traffic distribution. The other options, such as Load Balancing policy and Geolocation steering, do not focus on subnet addresses and therefore do not apply to this scenario. ASN steering policy also does not relate to subnet addresses directly, making it an incorrect choice as well.
