AWS Certified Advanced Networking - Specialty ANS-C01 Practice Test 53

Question 520

A public web API is experiencing application-layer requests with malicious HTTP patterns despite a healthy load balancer.

Which observation would most directly demonstrate the required network outcome?

  1. Controlled benign requests succeed while simulated matching malicious patterns are logged and blocked under the selected rules
  2. Tests verify permitted service paths work and development or vendor prefixes remain absent from unauthorized Transit Gateway tables
  3. Approved destinations pass, denied flows are logged and blocked, and the route-table inspection proves traffic crosses the firewall in both directions
  4. A controlled resilience exercise and Shield telemetry demonstrate traffic mitigation and uninterrupted legitimate request handling under the approved plan

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Controlled benign requests succeed while simulated matching malicious patterns are logged and blocked under the selected rules. That is relevant because aWS WAF inspects supported HTTP request attributes at layer seven and can count, block or challenge requests according to web ACL rules.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This would validate cross-account transit gateway route segmentation. The case instead needs evidence for aws waf managed and rate-limiting rules: Controlled benign requests succeed while simulated matching malicious patterns are logged and blocked under the selected rules.

C:

This would validate aws network firewall centralized filtering. The case instead needs evidence for aws waf managed and rate-limiting rules: Controlled benign requests succeed while simulated matching malicious patterns are logged and blocked under the selected rules.

D:

This would validate aws shield and resilient ddos posture. The case instead needs evidence for aws waf managed and rate-limiting rules: Controlled benign requests succeed while simulated matching malicious patterns are logged and blocked under the selected rules.

Question 521

A customer consumes one TCP service over PrivateLink using an interface VPC endpoint. The network team needs to prove that general IP routing into the provider's other application subnets has NOT been granted. Which access-control test establishes the intended boundary?

  1. The consumer can route to every provider CIDR through VPC peering, although it only needs the one service.
  2. The provider's NLB has healthy targets but no consumer endpoint or negative subnet probe is tested.
  3. A public DNS record exists for the provider, which is treated as proof of private service-only connectivity.
  4. The consumer successfully connects to the endpoint service DNS name while connection attempts to unrelated provider subnet addresses fail without a broad peering or TGW route.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

PrivateLink provides service-level access through an endpoint and does not require general routed reachability to the provider VPC.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That expands reachability beyond the private service boundary.

B:

Provider health alone cannot prove the consumer has scoped access.

C:

Public name publication cannot establish a PrivateLink isolation boundary.

Question 522

A central security account holds an AWS Config aggregator for network compliance, but a new workload account has never enabled recording. Its VPCs appear absent from the report despite using the same AWS Organization. What should governance check?

  1. Assume the central aggregator discovers resource history without source recorders.
  2. Enable the necessary Config recorder, delivery and rules in the source account and include it in the authorized aggregation scope.
  3. Enable a public ALB listener for each absent VPC.
  4. Change the root Route 53 hosted zone NS records.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Aggregation can summarize only supported configuration observations produced and permitted by source accounts and Regions.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An aggregator does not generate missing historical configuration evidence on its own.

C:

Public application exposure is unrelated to Config compliance recording.

D:

DNS authority does not enroll a workload account in Config recording.

Question 523

A network engineer has a working Direct Connect connection and must reach multiple VPCs behind one Transit Gateway. The engineer attempts to attach a private virtual interface directly to the Transit Gateway, but the configuration does not support the expected association. What should be provisioned?

  1. Add a private VIF directly to every Transit Gateway attachment.
  2. Use a transit VIF connected through a Direct Connect gateway associated with the eligible Transit Gateway.
  3. Use a public VIF to forward private VPC prefixes to the internet.
  4. Attach the transit gateway as the endpoint of a VPC internet gateway.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The transit interface and gateway association pattern is intended for Direct Connect reachability to Transit Gateway networks.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A private VIF does not attach directly to a Transit Gateway in that manner.

C:

Public VIFs are not the requested private TGW attachment path.

D:

Internet gateways are not Direct Connect transit VIF peers.

Question 524

An internal NLB has one healthy target group spread unevenly across three Availability Zones. Clients reaching the least-populated zone face connection bottlenecks because the load balancer’s nodes do not send traffic to healthy targets in other zones. Which feature should be evaluated?

  1. Disable all targets outside the overloaded zone.
  2. Put an HTTP header based routing rule on the TCP listener.
  3. Use an EC2 instance termination notice as the sole traffic-balancing policy.
  4. Enable cross-zone load balancing for the NLB or relevant target groups after reviewing capacity and charges.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Cross-zone forwarding allows a node to use healthy targets in other zones, subject to configuration and pricing considerations.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Removing remote capacity worsens the imbalance.

B:

NLB TCP listeners do not use ALB HTTP-header conditions for redistribution.

C:

Lifecycle notices do not control load-balancer cross-zone target selection.

Question 525

A SaaS company must route HTTPS requests by host name and URL path to separate application target groups.

Which AWS networking configuration best addresses this specific requirement?

  1. Review supported cross-zone load balancing settings and target registration across Availability Zones, then test traffic with the intended configuration
  2. Select a Network Load Balancer with the required static-address and listener configuration and register compatible target groups
  3. Use an Application Load Balancer with HTTPS listeners, managed certificates, host/path listener rules and healthy target groups
  4. Use Gateway Load Balancer and endpoint attachments with supported routes to insert compatible inspection appliances in the packet path

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The ALB makes layer-seven HTTP routing decisions after TLS handling and can direct different request paths to distinct backend groups. The proposed change can be checked by whether requests for each documented host and path reach the correct healthy backend and the public certificate validates in a browser.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This configuration addresses cross-zone load balancing and target distribution, not the alb layer-seven route and tls requirement. Cross-zone choices determine whether load balancer nodes can distribute traffic to healthy targets beyond the node's own zone, subject to product-specific defaults.

B:

This configuration addresses nlb static ip and tcp passthrough, not the alb layer-seven route and tls requirement. Network Load Balancer operates primarily at layer four and can expose stable per-zone IP addresses while forwarding TCP or UDP connections to targets.

D:

This configuration addresses gateway load balancer inline inspection, not the alb layer-seven route and tls requirement. Gateway Load Balancer uses a network-transparent appliance insertion pattern with GENEVE encapsulation and target health management.

Question 526

A worldwide ticketing site uses Global Accelerator with groups in Frankfurt and Tokyo. A release engineer sets the Tokyo traffic dial to 20, expecting exactly 20% of every global user connection to visit Tokyo. Which correction describes the dial accurately?

  1. The dial makes the Tokyo group accept exactly one-fifth of worldwide TCP connections.
  2. The dial limits the percentage of traffic already directed toward the Tokyo endpoint group, not a guaranteed global 20% split.
  3. The dial scales every Tokyo application server to 20% CPU usage.
  4. The dial changes CloudFront caching percentages in Tokyo only.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

A regional traffic dial is applied to traffic assigned to that group; end-user geography and health also affect the global mix.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A dial does not establish a global distribution quota across all endpoint groups.

C:

It controls network admission, not compute utilization.

D:

Global Accelerator has no CloudFront cache-hit policy to tune.

Question 527

An IPsec VPN to a Transit Gateway has an established BGP adjacency and advertises 172.28.0.0/16. Yet the TGW table used by the application has a more-specific blackhole entry for 172.28.10.0/24. Requests to that branch subnet fail. Which targeted action fixes the effective forwarding route?

  1. Replace the customer gateway preshared key while the IPsec tunnel and BGP peer are both established.
  2. Enable DNS hostnames in the source VPC while the TGW still blackholes the destination IP prefix.
  3. Configure a second VPN tunnel but retain the destination's more-specific blackhole.
  4. Remove or correct the 172.28.10.0/24 blackhole after verifying the intended VPN-learned aggregate is usable and permitted for that attachment.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Longest-prefix routing selects the more-specific blackhole instead of the healthy learned aggregate. Correct the actual match in the associated TGW route table.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The observed problem is a more-specific route drop, not tunnel authentication.

B:

DNS settings cannot override a matching TGW blackhole route.

C:

Another transport path cannot forward traffic matched by the existing blackhole entry.

Question 528

An enterprise changed an on-premises router image and now some Direct Connect advertised prefixes periodically disappear.

Which observation would most directly demonstrate the required network outcome?

  1. Observed advertised prefix counts drop without dropping legitimate endpoint reachability or accepting unauthorized destination blocks
  2. Route-table queries show the intended on-premises prefixes and controlled probes recover both forward and return paths
  3. Monitoring shows stable established BGP sessions and consistent intended prefix reachability throughout an observation window
  4. A route-table trace shows the approved next hop for the exact destination CIDR and end-to-end probes complete on the return path

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Monitoring shows stable established BGP sessions and consistent intended prefix reachability throughout an observation window. That is relevant because direct Connect private routing depends on stable BGP advertisements and allowed prefix policy in addition to the physical cross-connect.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This would validate hybrid route summarization and overlap response. The case instead needs evidence for direct connect bgp session health maintenance: Monitoring shows stable established BGP sessions and consistent intended prefix reachability throughout an observation window.

B:

This would validate transit gateway route propagation drift. The case instead needs evidence for direct connect bgp session health maintenance: Monitoring shows stable established BGP sessions and consistent intended prefix reachability throughout an observation window.

D:

This would validate aws gateway route-priority and static-route validation. The case instead needs evidence for direct connect bgp session health maintenance: Monitoring shows stable established BGP sessions and consistent intended prefix reachability throughout an observation window.

Question 529

A custom TLS service behind an NLB requires the backend application itself to terminate and validate each end-to-end client TLS session. The team proposes an NLB TLS listener that terminates TLS at the load balancer. What should be configured instead to preserve backend termination?

  1. Use an NLB TLS listener and assume it never decrypts viewer traffic.
  2. Use a compatible NLB TCP listener forwarding the TLS bytes to the backend TLS service.
  3. Switch the backend to plain HTTP so the NLB can inspect Host headers.
  4. Use a Route 53 health check in place of application TLS.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

TCP passthrough preserves the client-to-target TLS handshake, whereas a TLS listener terminates the incoming session at the load balancer.

Incorrect Answers

A:

TLS listeners terminate the client-side connection and change the trust boundary.

C:

That abandons the required application-level TLS termination.

D:

DNS health monitoring does not provide the backend’s cryptographic client session.

Question 530

The central network account shared a Transit Gateway but another account's VPC attachment is pending and unable to pass traffic.

Which observation would most directly demonstrate the required network outcome?

  1. The consumer attachment is accepted and available, its routes are permitted, and the source VPC can reach only approved prefixes
  2. Instances in each intended private subnet can reach approved outbound endpoints with correct return traffic while unsolicited inbound sessions remain blocked
  3. A cross-Region packet trace and route-table review show symmetric paths for permitted CIDRs while unapproved destinations are absent
  4. A consumer resolves the intended name to endpoint private addresses and reaches the allowed service while unrelated provider subnets stay unreachable

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The consumer attachment is accepted and available, its routes are permitted, and the source VPC can reach only approved prefixes. That is relevant because resource sharing and attachment authorization are separate from route-table configuration; each stage must be complete before transit is usable.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This would validate nat gateway route and az resilience. The case instead needs evidence for aws ram share and attachment acceptance: The consumer attachment is accepted and available, its routes are permitted, and the source VPC can reach only approved prefixes.

C:

This would validate transit gateway cross-region static routing. The case instead needs evidence for aws ram share and attachment acceptance: The consumer attachment is accepted and available, its routes are permitted, and the source VPC can reach only approved prefixes.

D:

This would validate interface vpc endpoint privatelink consumer configuration. The case instead needs evidence for aws ram share and attachment acceptance: The consumer attachment is accepted and available, its routes are permitted, and the source VPC can reach only approved prefixes.
