ANS-C00 Sample Questions

  1. Question 1

    You are architecting your e-business application for PCI compliance. To meet the compliance requirements, you need to monitor web application logs to identify any malicious activity. You also need to monitor for remote attempts to change the network interface of web instances.

    Which two AWS services will be helpful to achieve this goal?

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: B

    Explanation:
    Web application logs are internal to the operating system, so the only way to monitor them with an AWS service is to export them using CloudWatch Logs. AWS CloudTrail monitors the API activity and can be used to watch for particular API calls. The correct answer is the only one that references both these services.

  2. Question 2

    You can use the _____ command of the AWS Config service CLI to see the compliance state of each resource that AWS Config evaluates for a specific rule.

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: A

    A--Explanation:
    You can use the get-compliance-details-by-config-rule command of the AWS Config CLI to see the compliance state of each resource that AWS Config evaluates for a specific rule.--

  3. Question 3

    A user has enabled detailed CloudWatch monitoring with the AWS Simple Notification Service.

    Which of the below mentioned statements helps the user understand detailed monitoring better?

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: C

    C--Explanation:
    CloudWatch is used to monitor AWS as well as the custom services. It provides either basic or detailed monitoring for the supported AWS products. In basic monitoring, a service sends data points to CloudWatch every five minutes, while in detailed monitoring a service sends data points to CloudWatch every minute. The AWS SNS service sends data every 5 minutes. Thus, it supports only the basic monitoring. The user cannot enable detailed monitoring with SNS.--

  4. Question 4

    What value in a packet dictates the priority of the packet in a QoS enabled network?

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: B

    B--Explanation:
    The Differentiated Services Code Point value, or DSCP, is used to label packets on QoS enabled networks for prioritization.

  5. Question 5

    Multiple answers

    An organization processes consumer information submitted through its website. The organization’s security policy requires that personally identifiable information (PH) elements are specifically encrypted at all times and as soon as feasible when received. The front-end Amazon EC2 instances should not have access to decrypted Pll. A single service within the production VPC must decrypt the Pll by leveraging an IAM role.

    Which combination of services will support these requirements? (Choose two.)

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answers: B, E

  7. Question 7

    Multiple answers

    You are managing a VPC with 4 AZs. There is a load balancer managing the public accessibility to your servers. You have a secondary ENI with a private IPv4 address on an instance that is serving public web traffic. Your server communicates over private addresses to a database in another subnet. Security is a major concern for your company and whitelisting is in effect.

    You have to bring the web server down for maintenance, what two things should you do? (Choose two.)

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answers: B, D

    B,D--Explanation:
    You must configure a secondary ENI on the standby instance with an IP address that can access the data subnet. This may require modification of the security group for the database.

  8. Question 8

    Multiple answers

    You have two autoscaling groups in your VPC. One deploys servers that host the index of your website and another that deploys servers that host the images for your website.

    What three steps would you take to ensure the right servers are used for the right purpose? (Choose three.)

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answers: A, B, C

    A,B,C--Explanation:
    A Classic Load Balancer does not support path-based routing rules

  9. Question 9

    A user is collecting 1000 records per second. The user wants to send the data to CloudWatch using a custom namespace.

    Which of the below mentioned options is recommended for this activity?

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: C

    C--Explanation:
    AWS CloudWatch supports the custom metrics. The user can always capture the custom data and upload the data to CloudWatch using CLI or APIs. The user can publish data to CloudWatch as single data points or as an aggregated set of data points called a statistic set using the command put-metric-data. It is recommended that when the user is having multiple data points per minute, he should aggregate the data so that it will minimize the number of calls to put-metric-data. In this case it will be single call to CloudWatch instead of 1000 calls if the data is aggregated.--

  10. Question 10

    You are the AWS cloud architect and have been tasked with designing an appropriate subnetting design for your production VPC. Your production VPC requires secure communications back to the corporate private network. Quality of Service (QoS) is very important 24 x 7 for this particular connection, as real-time data is passed continually backwards and forwards between your on-prem bioinformatics enterprise application, and the number crunching servers deployed in the cloud. Any potential latency incurred on this connection will have a direct impact on the company's ability to attract investors and expansion into new markets.

    Select the correct network configuration that best facilitates your company's continued growth plans.

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: C

    C--Explanation:
    Answers A, B, and C all rely on an Internet connection. An Internet connection cannot guarantee QoS and will be subject to performance fluctuations - therefore they are all incorrect options. The only difference between these options is whether a Virtual Private Gateway is required - the answer is yes and therefore the correct answer is D.--
