An Anypoint Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) provides a secure and private networking environment for MuleSoft applications, using specific architectural elements:
* CIDR Blocks:
* Anypoint VPCs utilize CIDR blocks to define IP ranges, allowing organizations to control and segment the VPC's IP address space.
* Port 6091 for HTTP Requests:
* By default, HTTP requests can be made to workers on port 6091 from the public internet, providing an accessible entry point unless additional restrictions are applied.
* Explanation of Correct Answers (B, E):
* CIDR blocks enable IP range management for VPCs, and port 6091 is the default public entry port, which is part of Anypoint VPC's default settings.
* Explanation of Incorrect Options:
* Option A (Ports 8081 and 8082) is incorrect; these are not default public ports for Anypoint VPC.
* Option C (responsible for load balancing) is incorrect as load balancing requires a separate Dedicated Load Balancer (DLB).
* Option D (round-robin load balancing) applies to DLBs, not directly to VPCs.
