Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional topic 1 question 715 discussion

Exam question from Amazon's AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional
Question #: 715
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional Questions]

An AWS customer has a web application that runs on premises. The web application fetches data from a third-party API that is behind a firewall. The third party accepts only one public CIDR block in each client's allow list.
The customer wants to migrate their web application to the AWS Cloud. The application will be hosted on a set of Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application
Load Balancer (ALB) in a VPC. The ALB is located in public subnets. The EC2 instances are located in private subnets. NAT gateways provide internet access to the private subnets.
How should a solutions architect ensure that the web application can continue to call the third-party API after the migration?

  • A. Associate a block of customer-owned public IP addresses to the VPC. Enable public IP addressing for public subnets in the VPC.
  • B. Register a block of customer-owned public IP addresses in the AWS account. Create Elastic IP addresses from the address block and assign them to the NAT gateways in the VPC.
  • C. Create Elastic IP addresses from the block of customer-owned IP addresses. Assign the static Elastic IP addresses to the ALB.
  • D. Register a block of customer-owned public IP addresses in the AWS account. Set up AWS Global Accelerator to use Elastic IP addresses from the address block. Set the ALB as the accelerator endpoint.

B should be correct. When EC2 instances reach third-party API through internet, their privates IP addresses will be masked by NAT Gateway public IP address.

ALB is for connections coming in not going out. EC2 will respond to sessions coming through ALB for 80 and 443, for EC2 initiate anything from 3rd party source on internet it need NAT G/W

Why not C? C is the only answer that meets the solution criteria by only have "one" IP.

There is no such criteria. The criteria is to have calling IP in the predefined CIDR range. The B covers that.

You cannot assign an elastic IP address to an ALB, only NLBs.
