[All ANS-C00 Questions]

A company has a hybrid IT architecture with two AWS Direct Connect connections to provide high availability. The services hosted on-premises are accessible using public IPs, and are also on the 172.16.0.0/16 range. The AWS resources are on the 192.168.0.0/18 range. The company wants to use Amazon Elastic Load
Balancing for SSL offloading, health checks, and sticky sessions.
What should be done to meet these requirements?

  • A. Create a Network Load Balancer pointing to the on-premises server's private IP address.
  • B. Create an Amazon CloudFront distribution for the on-premises service and use the public IPs of the on-premises servers as the origin.
  • C. Create a Network Load Balancer pointing to the on-premises server's public IP address.
  • D. Create an Application Load Balancer pointing to the on-premises server's private IP address.

Hi, all. I think it can`t be letter A, according to https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/latest/network/elb-ng.pdf, page 38, we have that "Sticky sessions are not supported with TLS listeners and TLS target groups".

NLB also supports SSL offlload, sticky session, health check (May be recently). A&D are correct as of now. But for exam perspective Ans could be D https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-tls-termination-for-network-load-balancers/ https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/latest/network/load-balancer-target-groups.html#sticky-sessions https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/latest/network/target-group-health-checks.html

I would rather go with A . NLB now supports sticky sessions. Why I am choosing it over ALB is the support for TCP UDP which might be needed in hybrid scenario. Secondly in hybrid scenarios private IP for DNS mappings might be very important or handy. So I prefer A over D if only 1 answer is to be given.

The question is directed to 'target as ip address' and particulary private or public ip address -which one to use since both LBs (A/NLB) fullfill other reqs. Acc to article below, paragraph -ip, the RFC 6598 range (100.64.0.0/10) for targets located outside the load balancer’s VP(this includes Peered VPC, EC2-Classic, and on-premises targets reachable over Direct Connect or VPN) must be used: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-application-load-balancing-via-ip-address-to-aws-on-premises-resources/ This leads to C.

The entire paragraph from the above link is included here as follows: "ip – Targets are registered as IP addresses. You can use any IPv4 address from the load balancer’s VPC CIDR for targets within load balancer’s VPC and any IPv4 address from the RFC 1918 ranges (10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, and 192.168.0.0/16) or the RFC 6598 range (100.64.0.0/10) for targets located outside the load balancer’s VPC (this includes Peered VPC, EC2-Classic, and on-premises targets reachable over Direct Connect or VPN)." After reading through the paragraph, I didn't get the impression that the RFC 6598 range (100.64.0.0/10) must be used. Rather, any IPv4 address from the RFC 1918 ranges (10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, and 192.168.0.0/16) or the RFC 6598 range (100.64.0.0/10) can be used for targets located outside the load balancer’s VPC. As a result, I still believe the answer is D. Using on-premises server's public IP address seems to create unnecessary security concern.

As a matter of fact, it looks like you can't specify publicly routable IP addresses as target anyway.

The requirements are: SSL offloading, health checks, and sticky sessions. Answer D is a safer bet even though NLB now supports SSL offload, sticky session, and health check as well according to the link provided by r3bus76. Here is an example that shows AWS - SSL Offloading with an Application Load Balancer: https://infra.engineer/aws/36-aws-ssl-offloading-with-an-application-load-balancer

If you compare the features using the official study guide that came out in 2018, the NLB did not support SSL offloading or sticky sessions. Therefore D should be the correct answer based on this version of the exam.

answer D was the right answer in 2018. if NLB supports these features now, answer will be both A and D so it is impossible to eliminate the original answer of the question. so If D was already an answer, it can not be changed now unless the question asks for 2 answers. I will go with answer D for sure as everyone agrees that was the answer when the question was released.

A or D. Now NLB supports SSL offload, sticky session and health check. https://aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/features/?nc1=h_ls In the question is not explain what kind of services are hosted, so A for me is more corrects as answer.
