Amazon Web Services ANS-C01 - Amazon AWS Certified Advanced Networking - Specialty
A company has a VPC that hosts Amazon EC2 instances in a private subnet. The EC2 Instances use a NAT gateway and an internet gateway for internet connectivity to retrieve data from specific internet websites. The company wants to use AWS Network Firewall to filter outbound traffic.
What should a network engineer do to meet these requirements?
A network engineer needs to update a company's hybrid network to support IPv6 for the upcoming release of a new application. The application is hosted in a VPC in the AWS Cloud. The company's current AWS infrastructure includes VPCs that are connected by a transit gateway. The transit gateway is connected to the on-premises network by AWS Direct Connect and AWS Site-to-Site VPN. The company's on-premises devices have been updated to support the new IPv6 requirements.
The company has enabled IPv6 for the existing VPC by assigning a new IPv6 CIDR block to the VPC and by assigning IPv6 to the subnets for dual-stack support. The company has launched new Amazon EC2 instances for the new application in the updated subnets.
When updating the hybrid network to support IPv6 the network engineer must avoid making any changes to the current infrastructure. The network engineer also must block direct access to the instances' new IPv6 addresses from the internet. However, the network engineer must allow outbound internet access from the instances.
What is the MOST operationally efficient solution that meets these requirements?
A company operates its IT services through a multi-site hybrid infrastructure. The company deploys resources on AWS in the us-east-1 Region and in the eu-west-2 Region. The company also deploys resources in its own data centers that are located in the United States (US) and in the United Kingdom (UK). In both AWS Regions, the company uses a transit gateway to connect 15 VPCs to each other. The company has created a transit gateway peering connection between the two transit gateways. The VPC CIDR blocks do not overlap with each other or with IP addresses used within the data centers. The VPC CIDR prefixes can also be aggregated either on a Regional level or for the company's entire AWS environment.
The data centers are connected to each other by a private WAN connection. IP routing information is exchanged dynamically through Interior BGP (iBGP) sessions. The data centers maintain connectivity to AWS through one AWS Direct Connect connection in the US and one Direct Connect connection in the UK. Each Direct Connect connection is terminated on a Direct Connect gateway and is associated with a local transit gateway through a transit VIF.
Traffic follows the shortest geographical path from source to destination. For example, packets from the UK data center that are targeted to resources in eu-west-2 travel across the local Direct Connect connection. In cases of cross-Region data transfers, such as from the UK data center to VPCs in us-east-1, the private WAN connection must be used to minimize costs on AWS. A network engineer has configured each transit gateway association on the Direct Connect gateway to advertise VPC-specific CIDR IP prefixes only from the local Region. The routes toward the other Region must be learned through BGP from the routers in the other data center in the original, non-aggregated form.
The company recently experienced a problem with cross-Region data transfers because of issues with its private WAN connection. The network engineer needs to modify the routing setup to prevent similar interruptions in the future. The solution cannot modify the original traffic routing goal when the network is operating normally.
Which modifications will meet these requirements? (Choose two.)
A company has set up a NAT gateway in a single Availability Zone (AZ1) in a VPC (VPC1) to access the internet from Amazon EC2 workloads in the VPC. The EC2 workloads are running in private subnets in three Availability Zones (AZ1, AZ2, AZ3). The route table for each subnet is configured to use the NAT gateway to access the internet.
Recently during an outage, internet access stopped working for the EC2 workloads because of the NAT gateway's unavailability. A network engineer must implement a solution to remove the single point of failure from the architecture and provide built-in redundancy.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A company has a VPC in the AWS Cloud. The company recently acquired a competitor that also has a VPC in the AWS Cloud. A network engineer discovers an IP address overlap between the two VPCs. Both VPCs require access to an AWS Marketplace partner service.
Which solution will ensure interoperability among the VPC hosted services and the AWS Marketplace partner service?
A company recently started using AWS Client VPN to give its remote users the ability to access resources in multiple peered VPCs and resources in the company's on-premises data center. The Client VPN endpoint route table has a single entry of 0.0.0.0/0. The Client VPN endpoint is using a new security group that has no inbound rules and a single outbound rule that allows all traffic to 0.0.0.0/0.
Multiple users report that web search results are showing remote incorrect geographic location information for the users.
Which combination of steps should a network engineer take to resolve this issue with the LEAST amount of service interruption? (Choose three.)
A company is planning to deploy many software-defined WAN (SD-WAN) sites. The company is using AWS Transit Gateway and has deployed a transit gateway in the required AWS Region. A network engineer needs to deploy the SD-WAN hub virtual appliance into a VPC that is connected to the transit gateway. The solution must support at least 5 Gbps of throughput from the SD-WAN hub virtual appliance to other VPCs that are attached to the transit gateway.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A company has an on-premises data center in the United States. The data center is connected to AWS by an AWS Direct Connect connection. The data center has a private VIF that is connected to a Direct Connect gateway.
Recently, the company opened a new data center in Europe and established a new Direct Connect connection between the Europe data center and AWS. A new private VIF connects to the existing Direct Connect gateway.
The company wants to use Direct Connect SiteLink to set up a private network between the data center in the United States and the data center in Europe.
Which solution will meet these requirements in the MOST operationally efficient manner?
A company hosts a web application that runs on a fleet of Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The instances are in an Auto Scaling group. The company uses an Amazon CloudFront distribution with the ALB as an origin.
The application recently experienced an attack. In response, the company associated an AWS WAF web ACL with the CloudFront distribution. The company needs to use Amazon Athena to analyze application attacks that AWS WAF detects.
Which solution will meet this requirement?
A company is planning to use an AWS Transit Gateway hub and spoke architecture to migrate to AWS. The current on-premises multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) network has strict controls that enforce network segmentation by using MPLS VPNs. The company has provisioned two 10 Gbps AWS Direct Connect connections to provide resilient, high-speed, low-latency connectivity to AWS.
A security engineer needs to apply the concept of network segmentation to the AWS environment to ensure that virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) is logically separated for each of the company's software development environments. The number of MPLS VPNs will increase in the future. On-premises MPLS VPNs will have overlapping address space. The company's AWS network design must support overlapping address space for the VPNs.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?
