Exam AWS Certified Advanced Networking - Specialty ANS-C01 topic 1 question 89 discussion

Exam question from Amazon's AWS Certified Advanced Networking - Specialty ANS-C01
Question #: 89
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Advanced Networking - Specialty ANS-C01 Questions]

A company uses a 1 Gbps AWS Direct Connect connection to connect its AWS environment to its on-premises data center. The connection provides employees with access to an application VPC that is hosted on AWS. Many remote employees use a company-provided VPN to connect to the data center. These employees are reporting slowness when they access the application during business hours. On-premises users have started to report similar slowness while they are in the office.

The company plans to build an additional application on AWS. On-site and remote employees will use the additional application. After the deployment of this additional application, the company will need 20% more bandwidth than the company currently uses. With the increased usage, the company wants to add resiliency to the AWS connectivity. A network engineer must review the current implementation and must make improvements within a limited budget.

What should the network engineer do to meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

  • A. Set up a new 1 Gbps Direct Connect dedicated connection to accommodate the additional traffic load from remote employees and the additional application. Create a link aggregation group (LAG).
  • B. Deploy an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection to the application VPC. Configure the on-premises routing for the remote employees to connect to the Site-to-Site VPN connection.
  • C. Deploy Amazon Workspaces into the application VPInstruct the remote employees to connect to Workspaces.
  • D. Replace the existing 1 Gbps Direct Connect connection with two new 2 Gbps Direct Connect hosted connections. Create an AWS Client VPN endpoint in the application VPC. Instruct the remote employees to connect to the Client VPN endpoint.

Selected Answer: D
A) If current 1 Gbps Direct Connect is not enough for on-premises users adding another 1 Gbps Direct Connect will not add resiliency. In case of one Direct Connect link failure there will be not enough bandwidth. Especially with new app and increased by 20% usage. B) No resiliency. In case of VPN S2S failure 1 Gbps Direct connect won't be sufficient for on-premises and remote users. C) Very expensive D) Should work. In case of one link failure single 2 Gbps Direct Connect hosted connection will be sufficient to handle all the traffic for on-premises users. Remote users will connect by AWS client VPN directly to VPC.

With the increased usage, the company wants to add resiliency to the AWS connectivity. A network engineer must review the current implementation and must make improvements within a limited budget. Based on this requirement... B should be the answer

deploying an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection and configuring on-premises routing for remote employees would be the most cost-effective solution while meeting the company's requirements for increased bandwidth and resiliency.

Selected Answer: A
Obvioursly, correct answer is A. Although, option B has low cost, but it won't solve your slow issue, since VPN connection can reach 1.25Gbps maximum. Your company need more than 1.2Gbps in this case.

Not A for sure - AWS Direct Connect LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol) does not work on 1 Gbps dedicated connections Even B is not good from resiliency... so ideally not all the answers are correct.... B is closest

D is the most expensive... 4Gb BW plus VPN-client service In B there is no resiliency, it only says to re-route remote users through the S2S, not on-prem users too. C out So has to be A

The most cost-effective solution would be: Option B . Deploying an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection to the application VPC. Configuring on-premises routing for remote employees to connect to the Site-to-Site VPN connection. This option provides a more cost-effective solution by leveraging the existing 1 Gbps Direct Connect connection and using the same infrastructure. Adding a new connection would be too expensive, whereas deploying an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection is a more efficient use of resources. The other options are not correct because: Option A involves setting up a new direct connect link which will increase the cost. Option C introduces Amazon Workspaces which may add an additional layer of complexity and also incur costs.

A - This is the better and most cost effective solution. You're not changing the architecture just increasing performance. You can use multiple connections to increase available bandwidth. A link aggregation group (LAG) is a logical interface that uses the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) to aggregate multiple connections at a single AWS Direct Connect endpoint, allowing you to treat them as a single, managed connection. LAGs streamline configuration because the LAG configuration applies to all connections in the group. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/directconnect/latest/UserGuide/lags.html

A) The bandwidth of DX is 1Gbps, which is also a bottleneck, creating a LAG can speed up On-premises to Global Acceleration Location only, it won't help to provide better performance. B) correct. C) ??? D) It provides more bandwidth but is expensive

Selected Answer: A
I don't understand why B should be the answer. The company is already using DX connection; there is no benefit even if you no longer use the existing DX connection. Just adding one more DX connection and aggregating via LAG would solve this problem cost-effectively. I know establishing an S2S connection has a lower initial cost, but it only makes sense when you use both of the connections (DX and S2S).

Selected Answer: B
Is the more cost-effectively solution. You already have a DX for user who needs AWS App; with the Site-to-site ONLY for the newest application you can use 1.25Gb in plus for that application and still continue using the old DX for others. Replacing 1 DX with 2 DX + AWS Client VPC should be very more expensive than 1 Site-to-site

Selected Answer: A
A only. It adds one Dx only. As per https://docs.aws.amazon.com/directconnect/latest/UserGuide/lags.html D) invalid as DX can be 1,10 and 100GB, not 2GB, plus unlike A it asks for 2Dx hosted connections to be created, which is more expensive. B) wrong since site to site vpn limit is 1.25GBbps. Company already uses 1 Gbps and its not enough and expect 20% increase in the future https://aws.amazon.com/vpn/faqs/#:~:text=A%3A%20Each%20AWS%20Site%2Dto,of%20up%20to%201.25%20Gbps. C) remote employees still need to connect, so it does not solve anything.
