HOTSPOT
You have an Azure subscription that contains an Azure IoT hub, an Azure IoT Edge gateway, and 1,000 leaf devices. The leaf devices use a custom communication protocol that is NOT supported by the IoT hub.
You need to configure the gateway to meet the following requirements:
Minimize the number of connections between the gateway and the IoT hub.
Support addressing cloud-to-device messages to individual leaf devices.
How should you configure the gateway? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Explanation:
Box 1: Protocol translation
In the protocol translation gateway pattern, only the IoT Edge gateway has an identity with IoT Hub. The translation module receives messages from downstream devices, translates them into a supported protocol, and then the IoT Edge device sends the messages on behalf of the downstream devices.
Box 2: Advanced MessageQueuing Protocol (AMQP)
Connection multiplexing – All devices connecting to IoT Hub through an IoT Edge gateway can use the same underlying connection. This multiplexing capability requires that the IoT Edge gateway uses AMQP as its upstream protocol.
