What action should Pavel take to resolve an IP address from an FQDN for an internet-facing VM in Azure?

  1. Troubleshoot DNS on the client using standard name resolution procedures.

  2. Make sure that the appropriate IP address is added as a record set in the DNS zone.

  3. Create a public DNS zone and add the record set for the VM's FQDN.

  4. Check local firewall settings on the client machine.

The correct answer is: Create a public DNS zone and add the record set for the VM's FQDN.

Pavel should create a public DNS zone and add the record set for the VM's FQDN because this is essential for allowing external clients to resolve the domain name to an IP address. In Azure, when a VM is meant to be internet-facing, it typically requires a public IP address that is tied to its Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN). By creating a public DNS zone, Pavel ensures that the domain name is properly managed and can be resolved by clients over the Internet. This approach allows for the necessary mapping between the FQDN and the public IP address of the VM. Furthermore, managing this in a public DNS zone means it can be more efficiently handled and accessed by external clients, leading to better connectivity and availability. The other options, while they may touch on aspects of DNS resolution and connectivity, do not directly address the requirement of setting up a public DNS zone to facilitate the resolution of the FQDN for an internet-facing VM in Azure.
