    D. Use a service control policy (SCP) to run EC2 instance snapshots on a scheduled basis in each account.

  • Question 304:

    A company needs to implement a managed file system to host Windows file shares for users on premises. Resources in the AWS Cloud also need access to the data on these file shares. A SysOps administrator needs to present the user file shares on premises and make the user file shares available on AWS with minimum latency. What should the SysOps administrator do to meet these requirements?

    A. Set up an Amazon S3 File Gateway.

    B. Set up an AWS Direct Connect connection.

    C. Use AWS DataSync to automate data transfers between the existing file servers and AWS.

    D. Set up an Amazon FSx File Gateway.

  • Question 305:

    A company has created a NAT gateway in a public subnet in a VPC. The VPC also contains a private subnet that includes Amazon EC2 instances. The EC2 instances use the NAT gateway to access the internet to download patches and updates. The company has configured a VPC flow log for the elastic network interface of the NAT gateway. The company is publishing the output to Amazon CloudWatch Logs.

    A SysOps administrator must identify the top five internet destinations that the EC2 instances in the private subnet communicate with for downloads.

    What should the SysOps administrator do to meet this requirement in the MOST operationally efficient way?

    A. Use AWS CloudTrail Insights events to identify the top five internet destinations.

    B. Use Amazon CloudFront standard logs (access logs) to identify the top five internet destinations.

    C. Use CloudWatch Logs Insights to identify the top five internet destinations.

    D. Change the flow log to publish logs to Amazon S3. Use Amazon Athena to query the log files in Amazon S3.

  • Question 306:

    A SysOps administrator is trying to set up an Amazon Route 53 domain name to route traffic to a website hosted on Amazon S3. The domain name of the website is www.anycompany.com and the S3 bucket name is anycompany-static. After the record set is set up in Route 53, the domain name www.anycompany.com does not seem to work, and the static website is not displayed in the browser.

    Which of the following is a cause of this?

    A. The S3 bucket must be configured with Amazon CloudFront first.

    B. The Route 53 record set must have an IAM role that allows access to the S3 bucket.

    C. The Route 53 record set must be in the same region as the S3 bucket.

    D. The S3 bucket name must match the record set name in Route 53.

  • Question 307:

    A company has a VPC with public and private subnets. An Amazon EC2 based application resides in the private subnets and needs to process raw .csv files stored in an Amazon S3 bucket. A SysOps administrator has set up the correct IAM role with the required permissions for the application to access the S3 bucket, but the application is unable to communicate with the S3 bucket.

    Which action will solve this problem while adhering to least privilege access?

    A. Add a bucket policy to the S3 bucket permitting access from the IAM role.

    B. Attach an S3 gateway endpoint to the VPC. Configure the route table for the private subnet.

    C. Configure the route table to allow the instances on the private subnet access through the internet gateway.

    D. Create a NAT gateway in a private subnet and configure the route table for the private subnets.

  • Question 308:

    A company wants to use only IPv6 for all its Amazon EC2 instances. The EC2 instances must not be accessible from the internet, but the EC2 instances must be able to access the internet. The company creates a dual-stack VPC and IPv6only subnets.

    How should a SysOps administrator configure the VPC to meet these requirements?

    A. Create and attach a NAT gateway. Create a custom route table that includes an entry to point all IPv6 traffic to the NAT gateway. Attach the custom route table to the IPv6-only subnets.

    B. Create and attach an internet gateway. Create a custom route table that includes an entry to point all IPv6 traffic to the internet gateway. Attach the custom route table to the IPv6-only subnets.

  • Question 309:

    A company website contains a web tier and a database tier on AWS. The web tier consists of Amazon EC2 instances that run in an Auto Scaling group across two Availability Zones. The database tier runs on an Amazon ROS for MySQL Multi-AZ DB instance. The database subnet network ACLs are restricted to only the web subnets that need access to the database. The web subnets use the default network ACL with the default rules.

    The company's operations team has added a third subnet to the Auto Scaling group configuration. After an Auto Scaling event occurs, some users report that they intermittently receive an error message. The error message states that the server cannot connect to the database. The operations team has confirmed that the route tables are correct and that the required ports are open on all security groups.

    Which combination of actions should a SysOps administrator take so that the web servers can communicate with the DB instance? (Select TWO.)

    A. On the default ACL. create inbound Allow rules of type TCP with the ephemeral port range and the source as the database subnets.

    B. On the default ACL, create outbound Allow rules of type MySQL/Aurora (3306). Specify the destinations as the database subnets.

    C. On the network ACLs for the database subnets, create an inbound Allow rule of type MySQL/Aurora (3306). Specify the source as the third web subnet.

    D. On the network ACLs for the database subnets, create an outbound Allow rule of type TCP with the ephemeral port range and the destination as the third web subnet.

    E. On the network ACLs for the database subnets, create an outbound Allow rule of type MySQL/Aurora (3306). Specify the destination as the third web subnet.

  • Question 310:

    A SysOps administrator has created a VPC that contains a public subnet and a private subnet. Amazon EC2 instances that were launched in the private subnet cannot access the internet.
