Exam: az-700
Domain: Design, implement, and manage connectivity services
Topic: Design and implement Azure ExpressRoute
Difficulty: medium
A company has an existing ExpressRoute circuit with private peering configured. They now want to extend their network reach to Azure regions that are not directly connected through their current ExpressRoute circuit. Which feature should they enable on their ExpressRoute circuit to achieve this, and what additional configuration steps are required?
Answer Options
A
BGP route weights
B
ExpressRoute Gateway
C
Global Reach
D
ExpressRoute Cross-Connection
Correct Answer
C: Global Reach
Explanation
The correct answer is C. To extend the network reach to Azure regions that are not directly connected, the company should enable Global Reach on their ExpressRoute circuit. This feature allows traffic to be routed through Microsoft's network to reach Azure regions that are not directly connected to the circuit. Option A (BGP route weights) is used for optimizing routing paths within the same region, Option B (ExpressRoute Gateway) is not a feature of ExpressRoute, and Option D (ExpressRoute Cross-Connection) is a physical connection method and does not extend network reach.
