A company has VPCs across 50 AWS accounts and is using AWS Organizations. The company wants to implement web filtering. The requirements for how the traffic must be filtered are the same for all the VPCs. A network engineer plans to use AWS Network Firewall. The network engineer needs to implement a solution that minimizes the number of firewall policies and rule groups that are necessary for this web filtering.
Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Choose three.)
A company has an application VPC and a networking VPC that are connected through VPC peering. The networking VPC contains a Network Load Balancer (NLB). The application VPC contains Amazon EC2 instances that run an application. The EC2 instances are part of a target group that is associated with the NLB in the networking VPC.
The company configures a third VPC and peers it to the networking VPC. The new VPC contains a new version of the existing application. The new version of the application runs on new EC2 instances in an application subnet. The new version of the application runs in a different Availability Zone than that original version of the application.
The company needs to establish connectivity between the NLB and the new version of the application.
Which combination of steps will meet this requirement? (Choose three.)
A company has stateful security appliances that are deployed to multiple Availability Zones in a centralized shared services VPC. The AWS environment includes a transit gateway that is attached to application VPCs and the shared services VPC. The application VPCs have workloads that are deployed in private subnets across multiple Availability Zones. The stateful appliances in the shared services VPC inspect all east-west (VPC-to-VPC) traffic.
Users report that inter-VPC traffic to different Availability Zones is dropping. A network engineer verified this claim by issuing Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) pings between workloads in different Availability Zones across the application VPCs. The network engineer has ruled out security groups, stateful device configurations, and network ACLs as the cause of the dropped traffic.
What is causing the traffic to drop?
A company hosts its IT infrastructure in an on-premises data center. The company wants to migrate the infrastructure to the AWS Cloud in phases. A network engineer wants to set up a 10 Gbps AWS Direct Connect dedicated connection between the on-premises data center and VPCs. The company's network provider needs 3 months to provision the Direct Connect connection.
In the meantime, the network engineer implements a temporary solution by deploying an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection that terminates to a virtual private gateway. The network engineer observes that the bandwidth of the Site-to-Site VPN connection is capped at 1.25 Gbps despite a powerful customer gateway device.
What should the network engineer do to improve the VPN connection bandwidth before the implementation of the Direct Connect connection?
A network engineer needs to update a company's hybrid network to support IPv6 for the upcoming release of a new application. The application is hosted in a VPC in the AWS Cloud. The company's current AWS infrastructure includes VPCs that are connected by a transit gateway. The transit gateway is connected to the on-premises network by AWS Direct Connect and AWS Site-to-Site VPN. The company's on-premises devices have been updated to support the new IPv6 requirements.
The company has enabled IPv6 for the existing VPC by assigning a new IPv6 CIDR block to the VPC and by assigning IPv6 to the subnets for dual-stack support. The company has launched new Amazon EC2 instances for the new application in the updated subnets.
When updating the hybrid network to support IPv6 the network engineer must avoid making any changes to the current infrastructure. The network engineer also must block direct access to the instances' new IPv6 addresses from the internet. However, the network engineer must allow outbound internet access from the instances.
What is the MOST operationally efficient solution that meets these requirements?
A company is running a hybrid cloud environment. The company has multiple AWS accounts as part of an organization in AWS Organizations. The company needs a solution to manage a list of IPv4 on-premises hosts that will be allowed to access resources in AWS. The solution must provide version control for the list of IPv4 addresses and must make the list available to the AWS accounts in the organization.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A banking company is successfully operating its public mobile banking stack on AWS. The mobile banking stack is deployed in a VPC that includes private subnets and public subnets. The company is using IPv4 networking and has not deployed or supported IPv6 in the environment. The company has decided to adopt a third-party service provider's API and must integrate the API with the existing environment. The service provider’s API requires the use of IPv6.
A network engineer must turn on IPv6 connectivity for the existing workload that is deployed in a private subnet. The company does not want to permit IPv6 traffic from the public internet and mandates that the company's servers must initiate all IPv6 connectivity. The network engineer turns on IPv6 in the VPC and in the private subnets.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
An application team for a startup company is deploying a new multi-tier application into the AWS Cloud. The application will be hosted on a fleet of Amazon EC2 instances that run in an Auto Scaling group behind a publicly accessible Network Load Balancer (NLB). The application requires the clients to work with UDP traffic and TCP traffic.
In the near term, the application will serve only users within the same geographic location. The application team plans to extend the application to a global audience and will move the deployment to multiple AWS Regions around the world to bring the application closer to the end users. The application team wants to use the new Regions to deploy new versions of the application and wants to be able to control the amount of traffic that each Region receives during these rollouts. In addition, the application team must minimize first-byte latency and jitter (randomized delay) for the end users.
How should the application team design the network architecture for the application to meet these requirements?
A company is using AWS Cloud WAN with one edge location in the us-east-1 Region and one edge location in the us-west-1 Region. A shared services segment exists at both edge locations. Each shared services segment has a VPC attachment to each inspection VPC in each Region. The inspection VPCs inspect traffic from a WAN by using AWS Network Firewall.
The company creates a new segment for a new business unit (BU) in the us-east-1 edge location. The new BU has three VPCs that are attached to the new BU segment. To comply with regulations, the BU VPCs must not communicate with each other. All internet-bound traffic must be inspected in the inspection VPC.
The company updates VPC route tables so any traffic that is bound for internet goes to the AWS Cloud WAN core network.
The company plans to add more VPCs for the new BU in the future. All future VPCs must comply with regulations.
Which solution will meet these requirements in the MOST operationally efficient way? (Choose two.)
A company has five VPCs in the us-east-1 Region. The company hosts an internal web application in us-east-1. One of the company's VPCs. named VPC-A, needs to connect to an external partner's AWS environment. The partner’s environment is in the same AWS Region where the partner hosts a new version of the company's web application. The partner hosts its version of the application in a VPC named VPC-B.
The company has Amazon EC2 instances in VPC-A that need to connect to the web application in VPC-B A network engineer notices that the partner's VPC-B and the company's VPC-A use the same IP space. The network engineer needs a solution to allow the EC2 instances to connect to the web application. The solution must not negatively affect the exiting environment of the company or the partner.
Which combination of steps should the network engineer take meet these requirements? (Choose two.)
