AWS Certified Advanced Networking – Specialty (ANS-C00) — Question 355

A company uses a newly provisioned 1-Gbps AWS Direct Connect connection to configure a virtual interface for access to Amazon S3.
Which configuration values is the network engineer required to provide? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Connection speed
• B. VLAN ID
• C. IP prefixes to advertise
• D. Direct Connect location
• E. Virtual private gateway

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

To access Amazon S3 over AWS Direct Connect, a public virtual interface (VIF) must be configured, which requires specifying a VLAN ID and the IP prefixes to advertise over the BGP session. A virtual private gateway is only utilized for private VIFs connecting to a VPC, whereas the connection speed and Direct Connect location are already established at the physical port level.
