CKS Mock test 2 - Q1

**1. A pod called redis-backend has been created in the prod-x12cs namespace. It has been exposed as a service of type ClusterIP. Using a network policy called allow-redis-access, lock down access to this pod only to the following:

1. Any pod in the same namespace with the label backend=prod-x12cs.
2. All pods in the prod-yx13cs namespace. All other incoming connections should be blocked.

Use the existing labels when creating the network policy.’’
