AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate — Question 50

A SysOps administrator notices a scale-up event for an Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group. Amazon CloudWatch shows a spike in the RequestCount metric for the associated Application Load Balancer. The administrator would like to know the IP addresses for the source of the requests.

Where can the administrator find this information?

Answer options

• A. Auto Scaling logs
• B. AWS CloudTrail logs
• C. EC2 instance logs
• D. Elastic Load Balancer access logs

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as the Elastic Load Balancer access logs provide detailed information about the requests received, including the source IP addresses. Options A, B, and C do not contain specific request details for identifying the originating IPs, making them unsuitable for this purpose.
