Exam question from Amazon's AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02

Question #: 116
Topic #: 1

[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 Questions]

A retail company has an on-premises data center in Europe. The company also has a multi-Region AWS presence that includes the eu-west-1 and us-east-1 Regions. The company wants to be able to route network traffic from its on-premises infrastructure into VPCs in either of those Regions. The company also needs to support traffic that is routed directly between VPCs in those Regions. No single points of failure can exist on the network.

The company already has created two 1 Gbps AWS Direct Connect connections from its on-premises data center. Each connection goes into a separate Direct Connect location in Europe for high availability. These two locations are named DX-A and DX-B, respectively. Each Region has a single AWS Transit Gateway that is configured to route all inter-VPC traffic within that Region.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

A. Create a private VIF from the DX-A connection into a Direct Connect gateway. Create a private VIF from the DX-B connection into the same Direct Connect gateway for high availability. Associate both the eu-west-1 and us-east-1 transit gateways with the Direct Connect gateway. Peer the transit gateways with each other to support cross-Region routing.
B. Create a transit VIF from the DX-A connection into a Direct Connect gateway. Associate the eu-west-1 transit gateway with this Direct Connect gateway. Create a transit VIF from the DX-8 connection into a separate Direct Connect gateway. Associate the us-east-1 transit gateway with this separate Direct Connect gateway. Peer the Direct Connect gateways with each other to support high availability and cross-Region routing.
C. Create a transit VIF from the DX-A connection into a Direct Connect gateway. Create a transit VIF from the DX-B connection into the same Direct Connect gateway for high availability. Associate both the eu-west-1 and us-east-1 transit gateways with this Direct Connect gateway. Configure the Direct Connect gateway to route traffic between the transit gateways.
D. Create a transit VIF from the DX-A connection into a Direct Connect gateway. Create a transit VIF from the DX-B connection into the same Direct Connect gateway for high availability. Associate both the eu-west-1 and us-east-1 transit gateways with this Direct Connect gateway. Peer the transit gateways with each other to support cross-Region routing.

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/images/whitepapers/latest/hybrid-connectivity/images/dx-dxgw-transit-gateway-multi-region-public-vif.png B is wrong as it says, two DX Gateways contradictory C is wrong as it says to configure DXG to route traffic. infact Transit gateway peering need to be done between two transit gateways of each reigon. A is wrong because Private VIF is not apt in mentioned config of the question. Public VIF is correct (Transit public VIF) If you are using a single DX Gateway

Option D is incorrect because it suggests peering Transit Gateways to support cross-Region routing. While Transit Gateway peering is possible, it is not required when using a Direct Connect gateway, which can route traffic between associated Transit Gateways directly, reducing operational complexity

Selected Answer: D

Use Transit VIFs from each Direct Connect link to connect to a single Direct Connect Gateway. Associate both Transit Gateways (in eu-west-1 and us-east-1) with the DXGW to allow on-premises traffic to reach both Regions. Then, peer the Transit Gateways to enable inter-region VPC traffic. This setup uses managed services, supports high availability (via two DXs), and enables full cross-region and hybrid connectivity.

Selected Answer: C

While transit gateway peering can enable cross-Region VPC communication, it is not necessary when you are using a Direct Connect gateway. A Direct Connect gateway already provides the capability to route traffic across multiple Regions without needing to peer the transit gateways directly.

Selected Answer: D

Don't let "No single points of failure can exist on the network" mislead you into thinking that you need two DCGWs. DCGWs are not part of the region they connect to. Therefore, no SPOF translates to a double DC connection to a single DCGW. Hence, D.

I agree 'D' is a good answer to the problem, but isn't the DXGW a single point of failure? Question says "No single points of failure can exist on the network."

Would it be C for the answer? A Direct Connect gateway supports communication between attached transit virtual interfaces and associated transit gateways only and may enable a virtual private gateway to another virtual private gateway. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/directconnect/latest/UserGuide/direct-connect-transit-gateways.html

Selected Answer: D

I agree with option D Refer to the diagram below which explains in detail the use of Transit VIF and Public VIF. Also demonstrates the necessity for peering the transit gateways to allow the cross-region routing. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/images/whitepapers/latest/hybrid-connectivity/images/dx-dxgw-transit-gateway-multi-region-public-vif.png The only options that are using the cross-region routing are A and D. Option A mentions the use of Private VIF and not the Transit VIF. Hence A is incorrect.
