2) Security Lists vs NSGs

You need…Prefer
Simple subnet-wide controlsSecurity lists
Granular, workload-level controlsNSGs

Correct answers usually include least privilege NSGs for app tiers.


3) Connectivity picker

RequirementPrefer
Fast setup / lower costIPSec VPN
Higher bandwidth / predictable latencyFastConnect
Many VCNs / centralized routingDRG hub-spoke

4) Troubleshooting workflow (network issues)

  1. Verify routes (route tables + DRG attachments).
  2. Verify security (NSGs + security lists).
  3. Verify DNS resolution and target IPs.
  4. Verify gateways (IGW/NAT/Service GW) and egress rules.
