AWS Certified Advanced Networking – Specialty (ANS-C00) — Question 96

To connect to public AWS products such as Amazon EC2 and Amazon S3 through the AWS Direct Link, which step is NOT required?

Answer options

• A. Provide public IP address (/31) for each Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) session.
• B. Allocate a Private IP address to your network in 172.x.x.x range.
• C. Provide the public routes that you will advertise over Border Gateway Protocol (BGP).
• D. Provide a public Autonomous System Number (ASN) that you own or a private one to identify your network on the Internet.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because allocating a Private IP address in the 172.x.x.x range is not necessary for accessing public AWS services. The other options (A, C, and D) are required steps for establishing a proper connection to AWS Direct Link, including IP address configuration and route advertisement.
