Question 1

A Network Engineer needs to create a public virtual interface on the company's AWS Direct Connect connection and only import routes which originated from the same region as the Direct Connect location.

What action should accomplish this?

A : nfigure a prefix list on the customer router containing the AWS IP address ranges for the specific region.

B : nfigure a filter on the company's router to only import routes with the 7224:8100 BGP community attribute.

C : nfigure a filter on the company's router to only import routes without a BGP community attribute and a maximum path length of 3.

D : nfigure a filter in the console and only allow routes advertised by AWS without a BGP community attribute and a maximum path length of 3.

Answer: B

Question 2

A company recently implemented a security policy that prohibits developers from launching VPC network infrastructure. The policy states that any time a NAT gateway is launched in a VPC, the company's network security team must immediately receive an alert to terminate the NAT gateway. The network security team needs to implement a solution that can be deployed across AWS accounts with the least possible administrative overhead. The solution also must provide the network security team with a simple way to view compliance history. Which solution will meet these requirements?

A : Develop a script that programmatically checks for NAT gateways in an AWS account, sends an email alert, and terminates the NAT gateway if a NAT gateway is detected. Deploy the script on an Amazon EC2 instance in each account. Use a cron job to run the script every 5 minutes. Log the results of the checks to an Amazon RDS for MySQL database.

B : Create an AWS Lambda function that programmatically checks for NAT gateways in an AWS account, sends an email alert, and terminates the NAT gateway if a NAT gateway is detected. Deploy the Lambda function to each account by using AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM) templates. Store the results of the checks on an Amazon OpenSearch Service cluster in each account.

C : Enable Amazon GuardDuty. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule for the Behavior:EC2/NATGatewayCreation GuardDuty finding type. Configure the rule to invoke an AWS Step Functions state machine to send an email alert and terminate a NAT gateway if a NAT gateway is detected. Store the runtime log as a text file in an Amazon S3 bucket.

D : Create a custom AWS Config rule that checks for NAT gateways in an AWS account. Configure the AWS Config rule to perform an AWS Systems Manager Automation remediation action to send an email alert and terminate the NAT gateway if a NAT gateway is detected. Deploy the AWS Config rule and the Systems Manager runbooks to each account by using AWS CloudFormation StackSets

Answer: D

Question 3

A company has been using an outdated application layer protocol for communication among applications. The company decides not to use this protocol anymore and must migrate all applications to support a new protocol. The old protocol and the new protocol are TCP-based, but the protocols use different port numbers. After several months of work, the company has migrated dozens of applications that run on Amazon EC2 instances and in containers. The company believes that all the applications have been migrated, but the company wants to verify this belief. A network engineer needs to verify that no application is still using the old protocol. Which solution will meet these requirements without causing any downtime?

A : Amazon Inspector and its Network Reachability rules package. Wait until the analysis has finished running to find out which EC2 instances are still listening to the old port.

B : able Amazon GuardDuty. Use the graphical visualizations to filter for traffic that uses the port of the old protocol. Exclude all internet traffic to filter out occasions when the same port is used as an ephemeral port.

C : nfigure VPC flow logs to be delivered into an Amazon S3 bucket. Use Amazon Athena to query the data and to filter for the port number that is used by the old protocol.

D : pect all security groups that are assigned to the EC2 instances that host the applications. Remove the port of the old protocol if that port is in the list of allowed ports. Verify that the applications are operating properly after the port is removed from the security groups.

Answer: C

Question 4

A company is planning to migrate to AWS and use multiple VPCs in multiple AWS Regions. A network engineer must connect the eu-west-1 and eu-central-1 Regions to the company headquarters and branch office, respectively. The network engineer created a production VPC, named Prod A, with a CIDR block of 10.0.0.0. Prod A runs in an account in eu-west-1. The network engineer then created another production VPC, named Prod B, with a CIDR block of 10.1.0.0. Prod Ð’ runs in a different account in eu-central-1. The network engineer performed the following steps to try to achieve the required connectivity: 1. Created one transit gateway in each Region2. Shared and accepted the transit gateways with the production accounts in both Regions3. Configured the peering attachment between both transit gateways4. Attached both VPCs to the respective Region transit gateway5. Created both transit gateway route tables and associated the attachments with the route tables6. Configured a static route in both transit gateway route tables to send traffic to the remote VPC in the other Region7. Activated route propagation on the VPC route tables in each Region After the configuration, the network engineer tried to connect from Prod A to Prod B. However, the connection was unsuccessful. What should the network engineer do to achieve the required connectivity?

A : Modify the IP address of the peering attachment to a wider range.

B : Delete the static routes that were in the transit gateway route table to send traffic to the remote VPC and enable route propagation instead.

C : Create a new route destined to 10.0.0.0 in both production VPC route tables with the Region transit gateway as the target.

D : Modify the transit gateway route tables from the production accounts to propagate routes dynamically between the production VPCs.

Answer: C
