Question # 1

A company ran out of IP address space in one of the Availability Zones in an AWS Region that thecompany uses. The Availability Zone that is out of space is assigned the10.10.1.0 CIDR block. The company manages its networking configurations in an AWSCloudFormation stack. The company's VPC is assigned the 10.10.0.0 CIDRblock and has available capacity in the 10.10.1.0 CIDR block.How should a network specialist add more IP address space in the existing VPC with the LEAST operational overhead?

A.Update the AWS :: EC2 :: Subnet resource for the Availability Zone in the CloudFormationstack. Change the CidrBlock property to 10.10.1.0.
B.Update the AWS :: EC2 :: VPC resource in the CloudFormation stack. Change the CidrBlock property to 10.10.1.0.
C.Copy the CloudFormation stack. Set the AWS :: EC2 :: VPC resource CidrBlock property to10.10.0.0. Set the AWS :: EC2 :: Subnet resource CidrBlock property to 10.10.1.0 for the Availability Zone.

Question # 2

A company has multiple firewalls and ISPs for its on-premises data center. The company has a singleAWS Site-to-Site VPN connection from the company's on-premises data center to a transit gateway.A single ISP services the Site-to-Site VPN connection. Multiple VPCs are attached to the transitgateway.A customer gateway that the Site-to-Site VPN connection uses fails. Connectivity is completely lost,but the company's network team does not receive a notification.The network team needs to implement redundancy within a week in case a single customer gatewayfails again. The team wants to use an Amazon CloudWatch alarm to send notifications to an AmazonSimple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic if any tunnel of the Site-to-Site VPN connectionfails. Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

A. Replace the existing customer gateway with a new router. Create a new Site-to-Site VPNconnection to the transit gateway. For each VPN connection, set up a CloudWatch TunnelState alarmfor the VPN connection. Use a value of 0 for the alarm
B. Use a second customer gateway and a second ISP. Create a new Site-to-Site VPN connection to thetransit gateway. For each VPN connection, set up a CloudWatch TunnelState alarm for the VPNconnection. Use a value of less than 1 for the alarm.
C. Add an AWS Direct Connect connection to the existing Site-to-Site VPN connection to the transitgateway. For each VPN connection, set up a CloudWatch TunnelState alarm for the VPN connection.Use a value of failed for the alarm.
D. Use a second customer gateway with the existing ISP. Create a new Site-to-Site VPN connection tothe transit gateway. For each VPN connection, set up a CloudWatch TunnelState alarm for the VPNconnection. Use a value of unavailable for the alarm.

Question # 3

A company operates in the us-east-1 Region and the us-west-1 Region. The company is designing asolution to connect an on-premises data center to the company's AWS environment in us-east-1. Thesolution uses two AWS Direct Connect connections.Traffic from us-west-1 to the data center needs to traverse the Direct Connect connections.

A. At the data center, set the local preference for the primary connection to be higher than the localpreference for the secondary connection.
B. Use AS path prepending to set the AS path on the primary connection to be longer than the ASpath on the secondary connection.
C. Use local preference BGP community tags to apply the 7224:7300 local preference BGPcommunity tag to the prefixes for the primary connection. Apply the 7224:7100 local preference BGPcommunity tag to the prefixes for the secondary connection.
D. Use local preference BGP community tags to apply the 7224:9300 local preference BGPcommunity tag to the prefixes for the primary connection. Apply the 7224:9100 local preference BGPcommunity tag to the prefixes for secondary connection.

Question # 6

A company has two AWS Direct Connect connections between Direct Connect locations and thecompany's on-premises environment in the US. The company uses the connections to communicatewith AWS workloads that run in the us-east-1 Region. The company has a transit gateway thatconnects several VPCs. The Direct Connect connections terminate at a Direct Connect gateway andthe transit VIFs to the transit gateway.The company recently acquired a smaller company that is based in Europe. The newly acquiredcompany has only on-premises workloads. The newly acquired company does notexpect to run workloads on AWS for the next 3 years. However, the newly acquired company requiresconnectivity to the parent company's AWS resources in us-east-1 and to theparent company's on-premises environment in the US. The parent company wants to use two newDirect Connect connections in Europe to provide the required connectivity.Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead for the newlyacquired company?

A.Associate new transit VIFs to the existing Direct Connect gateway. Configure the new transit VIFsto use Direct Connect SiteLink.
B.Associate new transit VIFs to a new Direct Connect gateway and to a new transit gateway in theeu-west-1 Region. Use transit gateway peering to connect the transit gateways.
C.Associate new private VIFs to the existing Direct Connect gateway. Configure the existing transitVIFs and the new private VIFs to use Direct Connect SiteLink.
D.Associate new private VIFs to a new Direct Connect gateway and to a new VPC in us-east-1.Configure the existing transit VIFs and the new private VIFs to use Direct Connect SiteLink and AWSPrivateLink endpoints in the new VPC
