Question 100

A network engineer is designing a hybrid networking environment that will connect a company's corporate network to the company's AWS environment. The AWS environment consists of 30 VPCs in 3 AWS Regions.

The network engineer needs to implement a solution to centrally filter traffic by using a firewall that the company's security team has approved. The solution must give all the VPCs the ability to connect to each other. Connectivity between AWS and the corporate network must meet a minimum bandwidth requirement of 2 Gbps.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

    Correct Answer: D

    A viable solution must ensure central traffic filtering, connectivity between all VPCs, and at least 2 Gbps bandwidth between the AWS environment and the corporate network. Deploying four 1 Gbps AWS Direct Connect connections in different Direct Connect locations ensures redundancy and meets the 2 Gbps requirement through ECMP routing. Associating the Direct Connect gateway with a new transit gateway for each region and using transit gateway peering attachments ensures that all VPCs across different regions can connect to each other, allowing comprehensive traffic inspection through the firewall deployed in the inspection VPC. This setup satisfies all the given constraints and requirements while providing robust connectivity and filtering capabilities.

Discussion
ManhOption: D

This solution meets the requirements because: • It uses AWS Direct Connect, which provides a dedicated and private connection between the corporate network and AWS, with a minimum bandwidth of 2 Gbps (4 x 1 Gbps). • It uses a Direct Connect gateway, which allows multiple VPCs in different Regions to share the same Direct Connect connection. • It uses a transit gateway, which acts as a network hub that connects multiple VPCs and other networks, such as the corporate network and the inspection VPC. • It uses a transit gateway peering attachment, which enables routing between transit gateways in different Regions. • It uses ECMP routing, which allows traffic to be distributed across multiple paths for higher throughput and redundancy. • It uses an inspection VPC, which hosts the approved firewall and filters traffic between the corporate network and the AWS environment.

troopie22Option: D

I think the key is the need for connecting all the VPCs in different regions together and you can only accomplish that with the TGW peering in D.

WherecanIstartOption: D

D is the correct answer. You need to peer the transit gateways.

AradOption: D

I think the correct answer is D.

BalasmaniamOption: D

option C - each region has a DXGW but maximum 3 VPC can connect on single DXGW without TGW. Option : D , has TGW with DXGW can connect multiple VPC with TGW peering.

Balasmaniam

one DXGW can connect maximum 10 VPC

correct

Blitz1Option: D

i have read the answers several times and the debate is indeed between C and D. But i believe C) is excluded in the end because: 1) even if it is stating that is creating "a new transit gateway for each Region" after few phrases is saying "Connect all the VPCs in the three Regions to the transit gateway". Ups...you cannot connect all the VPCs in all the regions on only ONE transit gateway. Maybe is phrased bad(maybe they wanted to say something like: attach all the vpcs to their corresponding transit gateways in each region) or it's a big clue. And i believe is the clue. 2) in D we have a transit peering which is required by "The solution must give all the VPCs the ability to connect to each other" BUT this can be a benefit in the answer or a hint for actually disqualify the response. It is not saying in the question if traffic between regions should be inspected or not.(and i see that most of the ppl assumed that only traffic between on-prem and aws should be inspected) - this one is very tricky. So, yes i will go in the end with D just because of (1) and consider (2) a strange bonus.

RaphaelloOption: D

D is the correct answer.

evargasbrzOption: C

C is the right, as D didn't say to Connect all the VPCs in the three Regions to the transit gateway. You have no VPCs connected to the TGW in each region, so C is the right.

AWS_Exam_Enjoyer

Read: The solution must give all the VPCs the ability to connect to each other. It means it needs the 3 regions to be connected to each other so D the correct answer.

DeathFrmAbv

D provides transit gateway peering, the others don't, so D

tcp22

D for sure, C does not provide minimum2 Gbps in case of one DX goes down.
