Correct answer: a Traffic Manager profile that uses the priority routing method, a CNAME record in a DNS domain named fabrikam.com.
Why this is the answer
To achieve the desired failover behavior, you need a Traffic Manager profile configured with the priority routing method. This method allows you to define an ordered list of endpoints, and Traffic Manager directs traffic to the highest-priority endpoint that is healthy. In this scenario, App1eu would be assigned a higher priority than App1us. To direct traffic from https://www.fabrikam.com to the Traffic Manager profile, you must create a CNAME record in your DNS domain (fabrikam.com). This CNAME record will alias www.fabrikam.com to the DNS name of your Traffic Manager profile. Geographic routing would direct users to endpoints based on their geographic location, not for failover. A TXT record is used for verification purposes, not for directing traffic. A real user measurements key is for performance-based routing, not for a simple priority failover.
