Question 120
An admin configures Delivery Optimization peers across the public internet when policy permits only same-subnet sharing. Which finding would support closing the deployment or security issue?
Explanation
Correct Answer
This is the acceptance evidence for this specific situation: The test client downloads content from allowed local peers and not prohibited external peers. It would confirm that the intended intervention, 'Limit delivery group/peer scope to the approved network boundary.', addressed the problem because peer topology must follow network and privacy requirements.
Incorrect Answers
This observation would validate a different case: An administrator confuses Microsoft 365 Apps update channels with Windows OS feature update rings. It would check 'The Office client follows its app channel while the OS stays on its target version.' after 'Manage Microsoft 365 Apps channels separately from Windows device OS update policies.'. It does not establish success for the stated scenario; the needed evidence is 'The test client downloads content from allowed local peers and not prohibited external peers.'.
This observation would validate a different case: A Windows update ring has conflicting deferral settings with a feature update policy and machines move to a release that was not approved. It would check 'The corrected pilot remains on the approved target release through the test update cycle.' after 'Inspect effective update policies and correct overlapping feature controls.'. It does not establish success for the stated scenario; the needed evidence is 'The test client downloads content from allowed local peers and not prohibited external peers.'.
This observation would validate a different case: A macOS fleet reports inconsistent patch status because the management reporting sync hasn't completed after update. It would check 'The pilot's reported version converges with its verified local build after sync.' after 'Check device check-in, update reporting lag and local OS version before declaring failure.'. It does not establish success for the stated scenario; the needed evidence is 'The test client downloads content from allowed local peers and not prohibited external peers.'.
