You need to identity the web application firewall (WAF) rule that is incorrectly blocking traffic. What should you do?
You have an application hosted on a Compute Engine virtual machine instance that cannot communicate with a resource outside of its subnet. When you review the flow and firewall logs, you do not see any denied traffic listed.
During troubleshooting you find:
• Flow logs are enabled for the VPC subnet, and all firewall rules are set to log.
• The subnetwork logs are not excluded from Stackdriver.
• The instance that is hosting the application can communicate outside the subnet.
• Other instances within the subnet can communicate outside the subnet.
• The external resource initiates communication.
What is the most likely cause of the missing log lines?
Your frontend application VMs and your backend database VMs are all deployed in the same VPC but across different subnets. Global network firewall policy rules are configured to allow traffic from the frontend VMs to the backend VMs. Based on a recent compliance requirement, this traffic must now be inspected by network virtual appliances (NVAs) firewalls that are deployed in the same VPC. The NVAs are configured to be full network proxies and will source NAT-allowed traffic. You need to configure VPC routing to allow the NVAs to inspect the traffic between subnets. What should you do?

Each Dedicated Interconnect connection is attached to a Cloud Router in its respective region by a VLAN attachment. You need to configure a high availability failover path. By default, all ingress traffic from the on-premises environment should flow to the VPC using the us-west1 connection. If us-west1 is unavailable, you want traffic to be rerouted to us-east1. How should you configure the multi-exit discriminator (MED) values to enable this failover path?
