Exam AWS Certified Advanced Networking - Specialty ANS-C01 topic 1 question 192 discussion

An international company wants to implement a multi-site hybrid infrastructure. The company wants to deploy its cloud computing resources on AWS in the us-east-1 Region and in the eu-west-2 Region, and in on-premises data centers in the United States (US) and in the United Kingdom (UK). The data centers are connected to each other by a private WAN connection. IP routing information is exchanged dynamically through BGP. The company wants to have two AWS Direct Connect connections, one each in the US and the UK.

The company expects to have 15 VPCs in each Region with CIDR blocks that do not overlap with each other or with CIDR blocks of the on-premises environment. The VPC CIDR blocks are planned so that the prefix aggregation can be performed both on a Regional level and across the entire AWS environment. The company will deploy a transit gateway in each Region to connect the VPCs. A network engineer plans to use a Direct Connect gateway in each Region. A transit VIF will attach the Direct Connect gateway in each Region to the transit gateway in that Region. The transit gateways will be peered with each other.

The network engineer wants to ensure that traffic follows the shortest geographical path from source to destination. Traffic between the on-premises data centers and AWS must travel across a local Direct Connect connection. Traffic between the US data center and eu-west-2 and traffic between the UK data center and us-east-1 must use the private WAN connection to reach the Direct Connect connection to the appropriate Region when the Direct Connect connection is available. The network must be resilient to failures in either the private WAN connection or with the Direct Connect connections. The network also must reroute traffic automatically in the event of any failure.

How should the network engineer configure the transit VIF associations on the Direct Connect gateways to meet these requirements?

  • A. Advertise only the aggregate route for the company's entire AWS environment.
  • B. Advertise VPC-specific CIDR prefixes from only the local Region. Additionally, advertise the aggregate route for the company’s entire AWS environment.
  • C. Advertise all the specific VPC CIDR blocks from both Regions.
  • D. Advertise both Regional aggregate prefixes. Configure custom BGP communities on the routes advertised toward the data center.

To meet the requirements of ensuring traffic follows the shortest geographical path, using the private WAN connection when Direct Connect is unavailable, and ensuring resilience to failures, the network engineer should configure the transit VIF associations on the Direct Connect gateways as follows: B. Advertise VPC-specific CIDR prefixes from only the local Region. Additionally, advertise the aggregate route for the company’s entire AWS environment. This option allows for the most efficient routing by advertising VPC-specific CIDR prefixes from the local Region, ensuring traffic takes the shortest path within the AWS network. Additionally, advertising the aggregate route for the entire AWS environment ensures that in case of any failures or unavailability of Direct Connect connections, traffic can still reach its destination via other available paths, such as the private WAN connection.
