AWS Certified Advanced Networking – Specialty (ANS-C00) — Question 194

You have a static VPN connecting your data center and your VPC. You currently have 50 routes added to your route table. You want to add more; how should you do this?

Answer options

• A. 50 is the most you can have for any connection.
• B. Just add them, you have a maximum of 100 static routes per route table.
• C. Set up Direct Connect. A VPN will not support more routes.
• D. Convert your VPN to a dynamic VPN and use BGP.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because converting to a dynamic VPN and using BGP allows for a greater number of routes to be advertised and managed efficiently. Option A is incorrect since it misstates the limit, while B is wrong because the limit for static routes in a route table is not simply additive. Option C is not valid as Direct Connect is a separate service and does not address the need for more routes in the current VPN context.
