Question 51

A company has two AWS Direct Connect links. One Direct Connect link terminates in the us-east-1 Region, and the other Direct Connect link terminates in the af-south-1 Region. The company is using BGP to exchange routes with AWS.

How should a network engineer configure BGP to ensure that af-south-1 is used as a secondary link to AWS?

  • A: • On the Direct Connect link to us-east-1, configure BGP peering to use community tag 7224:7100 • On the Direct Connect link to af-south-1, configure BGP peering to use community tag 7224:7300 • On the Direct Connect BGP peer to us-east-1, set the local preference value to 200 • On the Direct Connect BGP peer to af-south-1, set the local preference value to 50
  • B: • On the Direct Connect link to us-east-1, configure BGP peering to use community tag 7224:7300 • On the Direct Connect link to af-south-1, configure BGP peering to use community tag 7224:7100 • On the Direct Connect BGP peer to us-east-1, set the local preference value to 200 • On the Direct Connect BGP peer to af-south-1, set the local preference value to 50
  • C: • On the Direct Connect link to us-east-1, configure BGP peering to use community tag 7224:7100 • On the Direct Connect link to af-south-1, configure BGP peering to use community tag 7224:7300 • On the Direct Connect BGP peer to us-east-1, set the local preference value to 50 • On the Direct Connect BGP peer to af-south-1, set the local preference value to 200
  • D: • On the Direct Connect link to us-east-1, configure BGP peering to use community tag 7224:7300 • On the Direct Connect link to af-south-1, configure BGP peering to use community tag 7224:7100 • On the Direct Connect BGP peer to us-east-1, set the local preference value to 50 • On the Direct Connect BGP peer to af-south-1, set the local preference value to 200

Question 52

A team of infrastructure engineers wants to automate the deployment of Application Load Balancer (ALB) components by using the AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK). The CDK application must deploy an infrastructure stack that is reusable and consistent across multiple environments, AWS Regions, and AWS accounts.

The lead network architect on the project has already bootstrapped the target accounts. The lead network architect also has deployed core network components such as VPCs and Amazon Route 53 private hosted zones across the multiple environments and Regions. The infrastructure engineers must design the ALB components in the CDK application to use the existing core network components.

Which combination of steps will meet this requirement with the LEAST manual effort between environment deployments? (Choose two.)

  • A: Design the CDK application to read AWS CloudFormation parameters for the values that vary across environments and Regions. Reference these variables in the CDK stack for resources that require the variables.
  • B: Design the CDK application to read environment variables that contain account and Region details at runtime. Use these variables as properties of the CDK stack. Use context methods in the CDK stack to retrieve variable values.
  • C: Create a dedicated account for shared application services in the multi-account environment. Deploy a CDK pipeline to the dedicated account. Create stages in the pipeline that deploy the CDK application across different environments and Regions.
  • D: Write a script that automates the deployment of the CDK application across multiple environments and Regions. Distribute the script to engineers who are working on the project.
  • E: Use the CDK toolkit locally to deploy stacks to each environment and Region. Use the --context flag to pass in variables that the CDK application can reference at runtime.

Question 53

A company has critical VPC workloads that connect to an on-premises data center through two redundant active-passive AWS Direct Connect connections. However, a recent outage on one Direct Connect connection revealed that it takes more than a minute for traffic to fail over to the secondary Direct Connect connection. The company wants to reduce the failover time from minutes to seconds.

Which solution will provide the LARGEST reduction in the BGP failover time?

  • A: Reduce the BGP hold-down timer that is configured on the BGP sessions on the Direct Connect connection VIFs.
  • B: Configure an Amazon CloudWatch alarm for the Direct Connect connection state to invoke an AWS Lambda function to fail over the traffic.
  • C: Configure Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) on the Direct Connect connections on the AWS side.
  • D: Configure Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) on the Direct Connect connections on the on-premises router.

Question 54

A European car manufacturer wants to migrate its customer-facing services and its analytics platform from two on-premises data centers to the AWS Cloud. The company has a 50-mile (80.4 km) separation between its on-premises data centers and must maintain that separation between its two locations in the cloud. The company also needs failover capabilities between the two locations in the cloud.

The company's infrastructure team creates several accounts to separate workloads and responsibilities. The company provisions resources in the eu-west-3 Region and in the eu-central-1 Region. The company selects an AWS Direct Connect Partner in each Region and requests two resilient 1 Gbps fiber connections from each provider.

The company's network engineer must establish a connection between all VPCs in the accounts and between the on-premises network and the AWS Cloud. The solution must provide access to all services in both Regions in case of network issues.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

  • A: Create a Direct Connect gateway. Create a private VIF on each of the Direct Connect connections. Attach the private VIFs to the Direct Connect gateway. Use equal-cost multi-path (ECMP) routing to aggregate the four connections across the two Regions. Attach the Direct Connect gateway directly to each VPC's virtual private gateway.
  • B: Create a Direct Connect gateway. Create a transit gateway. Attach the transit gateway to the Direct Connect gateway. Create a transit VIF on each of the Direct Connect connections. Attach the transit VIFs to the Direct Connect gateway. Use a link aggregation group (LAG) to aggregate the four connections across the two Regions. Attach the transit gateway directly to each VPC.
  • C: Create a Direct Connect gateway. Create a transit gateway in each Region. Attach the transit gateways to the Direct Connect gateway. Create a transit VIF on each of the Direct Connect connections. Attach the transit VIFs to the Direct Connect gateway. Peer the transit gateways. Attach the transit gateways in each Region to the VPCs in the same Region.
  • D: Create a Direct Connect gateway. Create a private VIF on each of the Direct Connect connections. Attach the private VIFs to the Direct Connect gateway. Use a link aggregation group (LAG) to aggregate the four connections across the two Regions. Create a transit gateway. Attach the transit gateway to the Direct Connect gateway. Attach the transit gateway directly to each VPC.

Question 55

A company wants to analyze TCP traffic to the internet. The traffic originates from Amazon EC2 instances in the company's VPC. The EC2 instances initiate connections through a NAT gateway. The required information includes source and destination IP addresses, ports, and the first 8 bytes of payload of TCP segments. The company needs to collect, store, and analyze all the required data points.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

  • A: Set up the EC2 instances as VPC traffic mirror sources. Deploy software on the traffic mirror target to forward the data to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Analyze the data by using CloudWatch Logs Insights.
  • B: Set up the NAT gateway as a VPC traffic mirror source. Deploy software on the traffic mirror target to forward the data to an Amazon OpenSearch Service cluster. Analyze the data by using OpenSearch Dashboards.
  • C: Turn on VPC Flow Logs on the EC2 instances. Specify the default format and a log destination of Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Analyze the flow log data by using CloudWatch Logs Insights.
  • D: Turn on VPC Flow Logs on the EC2 instances. Specify a custom format and a log destination of Amazon S3. Analyze the flow log data by using Amazon Athena.
