Amazon Exam ANS-C01 Topic 1 Question 25 Discussion

Actual exam question for Amazon's ANS-C01 exam
Question #: 25
Topic #: 1
[All ANS-C01 Questions]

A company is deploying a new stateless web application on AWS. The web application will run on Amazon EC2 instances in private subnets behind an Application Load Balancer. The EC2 instances are in an Auto Scaling group. The web application has a stateful management application for administration that will run on EC2 instances that are in a separate Auto Scaling group.

The company wants to access the management application by using the same URL as the web application, with a path prefix of /management. The protocol, hostname, and port number must be the same for the web application and the management application. Access to the management application must be restricted to the company's on-premises IP address space. An SSL/TLS certificate from AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) will protect the web application.

Which combination of steps should a network engineer take to meet these requirements? (Select TWO.)

I can't believe they're even considering these options. It's like they're trying to make a secure system by throwing darts at a wall of AWS features.

Yeah, Option A definitely stands out as the most logical choice. It's important to have a clear plan when setting up a system like this.

E? Really? Disabling stickiness for the web app? That's just asking for trouble. Not a chance.

C) Insert a rule for the load balancer HTTPS listener. Configure the rule to check the path-pattern condition type for the /management prefix and to check the X-Forwarded-For HTTP header for the on-premises IP address space. Forward requests to the management application target group if there is a match. Enable group-level stickiness in the rule attributes.

B) Modify the default rule for the load balancer HTTPS listener. Configure the rule to check the path-pattern condition type for the /management prefix and to check the source-Ip condition type for the on-premises IP address space. Forward requests to the management application target group if there is not a match. Enable group-level stickiness in the rule attributes.

D is an interesting idea, but forwarding the management app to the web app target group doesn't seem quite right. We want to keep them separate.

I'm not sure, but I think option B could also be a valid choice.

C looks interesting, but I'm not a fan of relying on the X-Forwarded-For header for IP verification. That could be easily spoofed.

User 2: Definitely, we need a more secure way to restrict access to the management application.

I'm not sure about B. Modifying the default rule to handle the management app doesn't seem as clean as having a dedicated rule for it.

Hmm, I think option A is the way to go. Separating the management application into its own target group and using path-based routing to restrict access to the on-premises IP space seems like a solid approach.
