Free Amazon ANS-C01 Exam Questions

Question 1

You deploy an Amazon EC2 instance that runs a web server into a subnet in a VPC. An Internet gateway is attached, and the main route table has a default route (0.0.0.0/0) configured with a target of the Internet gateway.

The instance has a security group configured to allow as follows:

Protocol: TCP

Port: 80 inbound, nothing outbound

The Network ACL for the subnet is configured to allow as follows:

Protocol: TCP

Port: 80 inbound, nothing outbound

When you try to browse to the web server, you receive no response.

Which additional step should you take to receive a successful response?

A : an entry to the security group outbound rules for Protocol: TCP, Port Range: 80

B : an entry to the security group outbound rules for Protocol: TCP, Port Range: 1024-65535

C : an entry to the Network ACL outbound rules for Protocol: TCP, Port Range: 80

D : an entry to the Network ACL outbound rules for Protocol: TCP, Port Range: 1024-65535

Answer: D

Question 2

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 3

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 4

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 : Create a new public VIF from each data center. Enable SiteLink on the new public VIFs.

B : Create a new transit VIF from each data center. Enable SiteLink on the new transit VIFs.

C : Use the existing VIF from each data center. Enable SiteLink on the existing private VIFs.

D : Create a new AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection between the data centers. Configure the new connection to use SiteLink.

Answer: C

Question 5

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 : Configure the ALB and the EC2 instance subnets to produce VPC flow logs. Configure the VPC flow logs to deliver logs to an Amazon S3 bucket for log analysis.

B : Create a trail in AWS CloudTrail to capture data events. Configure the trail to deliver logs to an Amazon S3 bucket for log analysis.

C : Configure the AWS WAF web ACL to deliver logs to an Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose delivery stream. Configure the stream to deliver the data to an Amazon S3 bucket for log analysis.

D : Turn on access logging for the ALB. Configure the access logs to deliver the logs to an Amazon S3 bucket for log analysis.

Answer: D
