Question

In your project my-project, you have two subnets in a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC): subnet-a with IP range 10.128.0.0/20 and subnet-b with IP range 172.16.0.0/24. You need to deploy database servers in subnet-a. You will also deploy the application servers and web servers in subnet-b. You want to configure firewall rules that only allow database traffic from the application servers to the database servers. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

Create network tags app-server and db-server. Add the app-server tag to the application servers, and add the db-server tag to the database servers. Run the following command: gcloud compute firewall-rules create app-db-firewall-rule \ --action allow \ --direction ingress \ --rules tcp:3306 \ --source-ranges 10.128.0.0/20 \ --source-tags app-server \ --target-tags db-server

Answer

Create network tag app-server and service account sa-db@my-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com. Add the tag to the application servers, and associate the service account with the database servers. Run the following command: gcloud compute firewall-rules create app-db-firewall-rule \ --action allow \ --direction ingress \ --rules top:3306 \ --source-tags app-server \ --target-service-accounts sa-db@my- project.iam.gserviceaccount.com

Answer

Create service accounts sa-app@my-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com and sa-db@my- project.iam.gserviceaccount.com. Associate service account sa-app with the application servers, and associate the service account sa-db with the database servers. Run the following command: gcloud compute firewall-rules create app-db-firewall-ru --allow TCP:3306 \ --source-service-accounts sa-app@democloud-idp- demo.iam.gserviceaccount.com \ --target-service-accounts sa-db@my- project.iam.gserviceaccount.com

Answer

Create service accounts sa-app@my-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com and sa-db@my- project.iam.gserviceaccount.com. Associate the service account sa-app with the application servers, and associate the service account sa-db with the database servers. Run the following command: gcloud compute firewall-rules create app-db-firewall-ru --allow TCP:3306 \ --source-ranges 10.128.0.0/20 \ --source-service-accounts sa-app@my- project.iam.gserviceaccount.com \ --target-service-accounts sa-db@my- project.iam.gserviceaccount.com
