A network engineer needs to standardize a company's approach to centralizing and managing interface VPC endpoints for private communication with AWS services. The company uses AWS Transit Gateway for inter-VPC connectivity between AWS accounts through a hub-and-spokemodel. The company's network services team must manage all Amazon Route 53 zones and interface endpoints within a shared services AWS account. The company wants to use this centralized model to provide AWS resources with access to AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) without sending traffic over the public internet.
What should the network engineer do to meet these requirements?
A company uses transit gateways to route traffic between the company's VPCs. Each transit gateway has a single route table. Each route table contains attachments and routes for the VPCs that are in the same AWS Region as the transit gateway. The route tables in each VPC also contain routes to all the other VPC CIDR ranges that are available through the transit gateways. Some VPCs route to local NAT gateways.
The company plans to add many new VPCs soon. A network engineer needs a solution to add new VPC CIDR ranges to the route tables in each VPC.
Which solution will meet these requirements in the MOST operationally efficient way?
A company is migrating its on-premises network from its data center in Virginia to its data center in New York. The AWS Direct Connect connections for the Virginia and New York data center locations are both associated to the us-east-1 Region. The company needs to migrate a private VIF on an existing Direct Connect hosted connection from Virginia to New York. The company's on-premises network uses the connection to access VPCs through a Direct Connect gateway in us-east-1.
The company has already requested a new Direct Connect hosted connection from the new data center to the New York Direct Connect location.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST downtime?
A global company is establishing network connections between the company's primary and secondary data centers and a VPC. A network engineer needs to maximize resiliency and fault tolerance for the connections. The network bandwidth must be greater than 10 Gbps.
Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?
A company is planning to create a service that requires encryption in transit. The traffic must not be decrypted between the client and the backend of the service. The company will implement the service by using the gRPC protocol over TCP port 443. The service will scale up to thousands of simultaneous connections. The backend of the service will be hosted on an Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) duster with the Kubernetes Cluster Autoscaler and the Horizontal Pod Autoscaler configured. The company needs to use mutual TLS for two-way authentication between the client and the backend.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A company has 10 Amazon EC2 instances that run web server software in a production VPC. The company also has 10 web servers that run in an on-premises data center. The company has a 10 Gbps AWS Direct Connect connection between the on-premises data center and the production VPC. The data center uses the 10.100.0.0/20 CIDR block.
The company needs to implement a load balancing solution that receives HTTPS traffic from thousands of external users. The solution must distribute the traffic across the web servers on AWS and the web servers in the data center. Regardless of the location of the web servers, HTTPS requests must go to the same web server for the duration of the session.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A company is building an internet-facing application that is hosted on an Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) cluster. The company is using the Amazon VPC Container Network Interface (CNI) plugin for Kubernetes for pod networking connectivity. The company needs to expose its application to the internet by using a Network Load Balancer (NLB). The pods that host the application must have visibility of the source IP address that is contained in the original packet that the NLB receives.
How should the network engineer configure the NLB and Amazon EKS settings to achieve these goals?
A company has an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection between AWS and its branch office. A network engineer is troubleshooting connectivity issues that the connection is experiencing. The VPN connection terminates at a transit gateway and is statically routed. In the transit gateway route table, there are several static route entries that target specific subnets at the branch office.
The network engineer determines that the root cause of the issues was the expansion of underlying subnet ranges in the branch office during routine maintenance.
Which solution will solve this problem with the LEAST administrative overhead for future expansion efforts?
A company has deployed a software-defined WAN (SD-WAN) solution to interconnect all of its offices. The company is migrating workloads to AWS and needs to extend its SD-WAN solution to support connectivity to these workloads.
A network engineer plans to deploy AWS Transit Gateway Connect and two SD-WAN virtual appliances to provide this connectivity. According to company policies, only a single SD-WAN virtual appliance can handle traffic from AWS workloads at a given time.
How should the network engineer configure routing to meet these requirements?
A company has a transit gateway in a single AWS account. The company sends flow logs for the transit gateway to an Amazon CloudWatch Logs log group.
The company created an AWS Lambda function to analyze the logs. The Lambda function sends a notification to an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic when a VPC generates traffic that is dropped by the transit gateway. Each notification contains the account ID. VPC ID, and total amount of dropped packets.
The company wants to subscribe a new Lambda function to the SNS topic. The new Lambda function must automatically prevent the traffic that is identified in each notification from leaving a VPC by applying a network ACL to the transit gateway attachment subnets in the VPC that generates the traffic.
