Amazon ANS-C01 Exam - Topic 1 Question 46 Discussion

Actual exam question for Amazon's ANS-C01 exam

Question #: 46
Topic #: 1

A company is running business applications on AWS. The company uses 50 AWS accounts, thousands of VPCs. and 3 AWS Regions across the United States and Europe.

A network engineer needs to establish network connectivity between an on-premises data center and the Regions. The network engineer also must establish connectivity between the VPCs. On-premises users and applications must be able to connect to applications that run in the VPCs.

The company has an existing AWS Direct Connect connection that the network engineer can use. The network engineer creates a transit gateway in each Region and configures the transit gateways as inter-Region peers.

Which solution will provide network connectivity from the on-premises data center to the Regions and will provide inter-VPC communications across the different Regions?

ACreate a private VIF with a gateway type of virtual private gateway. Configure the private VIF to use a virtual private gateway that is associated with one of the VPCs.

BCreate a private VIF to a new Direct Connect gateway. Associate the new Direct Connect gateway with a virtual private gateway in each VPC.

CCreate a transit VIF with a gateway association to a new Direct Connect gateway. Associate each transit gateway with the new Direct Connect gateway.

DCreate an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection that uses a public VIF for the Direct Connect connection Attach the Site-to-Site VPN connection to the transit gateways.

B seems too complicated for what they need.

Definitely not A, that won't work for inter-Region.

Wait, can a transit VIF really handle that? Seems sketchy.

Sounds like a transit gateway setup is the way to go!

I recall that using a Direct Connect gateway is important for inter-region connectivity, so option B might not be the best fit since it mentions a virtual private gateway instead.

I’m a bit confused about the difference between a private VIF and a transit VIF. I feel like I might have mixed them up in my notes.

I think option C sounds familiar from practice questions, where we used transit VIFs to connect multiple VPCs. That might be the right approach.

I remember studying about Direct Connect and how it can be used with transit gateways, but I'm not sure if a private VIF is the best choice here.

I'm a little confused by the mention of the existing AWS Direct Connect connection. Does that change how I should approach this, or can I just ignore that and focus on the new connectivity needs? I want to make sure I'm not missing any important details.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is to use the transit gateways to connect the VPCs across Regions, and then use a Direct Connect gateway to connect the on-premises data center. Option C looks like the best solution to meet all the requirements.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the differences between the VIF types and how they would work in this scenario. I'll need to review the AWS Direct Connect documentation to make sure I understand the implications of each choice.

This seems like a tricky question, but I think I have a good handle on the key concepts. I'll need to carefully consider the options and how they relate to the requirements.

Well, if we're going for the most 'transit'-ional solution, I'd have to go with C. Get that Direct Connect gateway and transit VIF working together, you know? Smooth sailing from there on out!

I'm leaning towards B. Creating a private VIF to a new Direct Connect gateway and associating it with the VPCs seems like a cleaner approach than the transit gateway option.

I agree, setting up a private VIF to a new Direct Connect gateway seems like the best choice.

D seems like the most straightforward solution. Using a public VIF for the Site-to-Site VPN connection and attaching it to the transit gateways should provide the connectivity we need.

Option C looks promising, but I'm a bit concerned about the complexity of configuring the transit VIF and the Direct Connect gateway. Seems like a lot of moving parts.
