Question 1

A company is deploying a web application into two AWS Regions. The company has one VPC in each Region. Each VPC has three Amazon EC2 instances as web servers behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The company already has configured an Amazon Route 53 public hosted zone for example.com. Users will access the application by using the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of app.example.com. The company needs a DNS solution that allows global users to access the application. The solution must route the users' requests to the Region that provides the lowest response time. The solution must fail over to the Region that provides the next-lowest response time if the application is unavailable in the initially intended Region. Which solution will meet these requirements?

A : For each ALB, create an A record that has a geolocation routing policy to route app.example.com to the IP addresses of the ALB. Configure a Route 53 HTTP health check that monitors each ALB by IP address. Associate the health check with the A records.

B : Create an A record that has a geolocation routing policy to route app.example.com to the IP addresses for both ALBs. Configure a Route 53 health check that monitors TCP port 80 for each ALB by IP address. Associate the health check with the A records.

C : Create an A record that has a latency-based routing policy to route app.example.com as an alias to one of the ALBs. Configure a Route 53 health check that monitors TCP port 80 for each ALB by IP address. Associate the health check with the A records.

D : For each ALB, create an A record that has a latency-based routing policy to route app.example.com as an alias to the ALB. Set the value for Evaluate Target Health to Yes for the records.

Answer: D

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 configured an AWS Cloud WAN core network with edge locations in the us-east-1 Region and the us-west-1 Region. Each edge location has two segments: development and staging. The segments use the default core network policy. The company has attached VPCs to the core network. A development VPC is attached to the development segment in us-east-1 and is configured to use the 10.0.0.0 CIDR block. A staging VPC is attached to the staging segment in us-west-1 and is configured to use the 10.5.0.0 CIDR block. The company has updated the route tables for both VPCs with a route that directs any traffic for 0.0.0.0/0 to the core network. The companys network team needs to establish communication between the two VPCs by using the AWS Cloud WAN core network. The network team is not receiving a response during tests of communication between the VPCs. The network team has verified that security groups and network ACLs are not blocking the traffic. What should the network team do to establish this communication?

A : Update both VPC route tables to have a new static route. Configure a route on the development VPC to direct the traffic for 10.0.0.0 to the development VPC attachment. Configure a route on the staging VPC to direct the traffic for 10.5.0.0 to the staging VPC attachment.

B : Update the segment filter to allow traffic on the development and staging segments.

C : Set the isolate-attachments parameter to False for the development and staging segments.

D : Update the core network policy to add a static route for each segment. Configure a route to direct the traffic for 10.0.0.0 to the development VPC attachment. Configure a route to direct the traffic for 10.5.0.0 to the staging VPC attachment.

Answer: D

Question 4

A company runs workloads in multiple VPCs. The company needs to securely access a workload in one of the VPCs, named VPC-A, from an on-premises data center. A network engineer sets up an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection to a transit gateway. The network engineer configures dynamic routing for the connection, and communication works properly. Recently, the owner of VPC-A added another CIDR range to the VPC. The VPC-A owner created workloads that use the additional CIDR range. The company's on-premises network is unable to reach the new workloads. The network engineer needs to resolve the network connectivity issue and ensure that connectivity will not be affected if additional VPC CIDR ranges are added to the VPC in the future. Which solution will meet these requirements with the MOST operational efficiency?

A : Configure route propagation for VPC-A to the VPN attachment route table.

B : Manually update the VPN attachment route table to include the new CIDR range.

C : Configure an Amazon EventBridge rule to invoke an AWS Lambda function when the rule to matches an update to the VPC-A CIDR range. Configure the Lambda function to update the VPN attachment route table.

D : Configure an Amazon CloudWatch alarm to invoke an AWS Lambda function when there is an update to the VPC-A CIDR range. Configure the Lambda function to update the VPN attachment route table. Restart the VPN tunnels.

Answer: A

Question 5

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.
