Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional topic 1 question 697 discussion

A company provides a centralized Amazon EC2 application hosted in a single shared VPC. The centralized application must be accessible from client applications running in the VPCs of other business units. The centralized application front end is configured with a Network Load Balancer (NLB) for scalability.
Up to 10 business unit VPCs will need to be connected to the shared VPC. Some of the business unit VPC CIDR blocks overlap with the shared VPC, and some overlap with each other. Network connectivity to the centralized application in the shared VPC should be allowed from authorized business unit VPCs only.
Which network configuration should a solutions architect use to provide connectivity from the client applications in the business unit VPCs to the centralized application in the shared VPC?

  • A. Create an AWS Transit Gateway. Attach the shared VPC and the authorized business unit VPCs to the transit gateway. Create a single transit gateway route table and associate it with all of the attached VPCs. Allow automatic propagation of routes from the attachments into the route table. Configure VPC routing tables to send traffic to the transit gateway.
  • B. Create a VPC endpoint service using the centralized application NLB and enable the option to require endpoint acceptance. Create a VPC endpoint in each of the business unit VPCs using the service name of the endpoint service. Accept authorized endpoint requests from the endpoint service console.
  • C. Create a VPC peering connection from each business unit VPC to the shared VPC. Accept the VPC peering connections from the shared VPC console. Configure VPC routing tables to send traffic to the VPC peering connection.
  • D. Configure a virtual private gateway for the shared VPC and create customer gateways for each of the authorized business unit VPCs. Establish a Site-to-Site VPN connection from the business unit VPCs to the shared VPC. Configure VPC routing tables to send traffic to the VPN connection.

Amazon Transit Gateway doesn’t support routing between Amazon VPCs with overlapping CIDRs. If you attach a new Amazon VPC that has a CIDR which overlaps with an already attached Amazon VPC, Amazon Transit Gateway will not propagate the new Amazon VPC route into the Amazon Transit Gateway route table.

Agree! NLBs always SNAT the client source IP address to their own IP within your VPC when the incoming request to the NLB via a gateway load balancer endpoint or vpc endpoint (private link): https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/latest/network/load-balancer-target-groups.html#client-ip-preservation (This can be annoying if you want the NLB's client IP preservation feature!)
