Your Application Gateway backend pool contains two VMs running a legacy application that sometimes returns HTTP 500 errors for a few seconds during normal operation, but the application is still healthy. You configure a health probe with a 30-second interval, a 10-second timeout, and an unhealthy threshold of 3. You notice that the VMs are frequently marked unhealthy. What is the most likely cause and what should you do?

The probe is treating HTTP 500 as unhealthy, and the unhealthy threshold is too low for the application's transient errors. Increase the unhealthy threshold or use a custom probe that treats 500 as healthy.

The probe interval is too short, causing too many probes. Increase the interval to 60 seconds.

The probe timeout is too long, causing the gateway to wait too long for a response. Reduce the timeout to 5 seconds.

The backend pool is misconfigured. Recreate the backend pool with the correct VM IP addresses.

You have an Azure Application Gateway that routes traffic to a backend pool of VMs. The backend VMs are in the same virtual network as the gateway. You need to ensure that the gateway can communicate with the backend VMs without exposing them to the internet. What should you do?

Place the backend VMs in the same subnet as the Application Gateway

Configure the backend pool with the private IP addresses of the VMs and ensure network security groups allow traffic from the gateway subnet

Ensure the backend VMs have public IP addresses

Use Azure Bastion to connect the gateway to the backend VMs
