Read the first 6 Private Endpoints and Private Link flashcards as text
  1. What DNS change is required to ensure Azure resources resolve a Private Endpoint's private IP instead of the service's public IP?

    Answer: Create a Private DNS Zone for the service and link it to the VNet

    Creating a Private DNS Zone (e.g., privatelink.blob.core.windows.net) and linking it to the VNet overrides public DNS resolution with the private endpoint's IP.

  2. How does a Private Endpoint affect network security for an Azure PaaS service?

    Answer: It allows the service to be accessed from the private IP and can be used alongside firewall rules to disable public access

    Private Endpoints provide a private IP path and can be combined with disabling public network access on the service to ensure all traffic is private.

  3. Which feature allows you to use a single Private Endpoint to access multiple services behind the same Private Link Service?

    Answer: Sub-resources (group IDs) allow targeting specific service sub-components

    Some services expose multiple sub-resources (group IDs); you create separate Private Endpoints for each sub-resource (e.g., blob vs. file for Storage Account).

  4. What happens to a Private Endpoint if the linked Azure resource (e.g., storage account) is deleted?

    Answer: The Private Endpoint remains and shows a 'disconnected' state

    When the underlying resource is deleted, the associated Private Endpoint enters a 'disconnected' state and must be manually deleted.

  5. Which Azure tool can you use to audit all Private Endpoint connections and their approval status across your subscription?

    Answer: The Private Link Center in the Azure portal

    The Azure Private Link Center provides a centralized view of all Private Endpoints and Private Link Services, including connection approval status.

  6. Can a Private Endpoint be accessed from an on-premises network connected via ExpressRoute or VPN?

    Answer: Yes — on-premises clients can reach Private Endpoints via ExpressRoute or VPN with proper DNS forwarding

    On-premises clients can access Private Endpoints over ExpressRoute or VPN; DNS must be configured to resolve the privatelink FQDN to the private IP.
