Oracle Cloud Infrastructure 2023 Architect Associate — Question 14

Your DevOps team needs to interconnect the on-premises network to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) resources, such as a managed database that resides in a private subnet. They indicate that they have a low budget and their bandwidth requirements are minimal, so you decide that a site-to-site VPN is the best option. They provide you with their router public IP address. You need to create an object in OCI that represents this router.
Which object would you create?

Answer options

• A. Bastion Host
• B. IPSec Tunnel
• C. Dynamic Routing Gateway (DRG)
• D. Customer Premises Equipment (CPE)
• E. Internet Gateway
• F. Virtual Network Interface Card (vNIC)

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, Customer Premises Equipment (CPE), as it represents the on-premises router used in the site-to-site VPN connection. The other options do not accurately represent the router; for instance, a Bastion Host is used for secure access, an IPSec Tunnel is part of the VPN but not the router itself, a Dynamic Routing Gateway (DRG) facilitates connectivity but isn't the router, and the Internet Gateway and vNIC serve different networking purposes.
