AWS Certified Advanced Networking – Specialty (ANS-C00) — Question 139

Your network utilizes jumbo frames on its servers and your router. You are trying to access your AWS resources, and you are having issues with packet loss.
What is the best solution?

Answer options

• A. Remove the "Do not Fragment" flag on the packets.
• B. Lower the MTU for your network.
• C. Call AWS support.
• D. You will have to upgrade to Direct Connect.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Upgrading to Direct Connect is the best solution because it provides a dedicated network connection to AWS, which can handle larger packets without fragmentation issues. The other options, such as lowering the MTU or removing the 'Do not Fragment' flag, may not address the underlying issue of packet loss effectively, while calling support could lead to delays without a guaranteed solution.
