AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate (legacy) — Question 245

A user has created a subnet with VPC and launched an EC2 instance in that subnet with only default settings. Which of the below mentioned options is ready to use on the EC2 instance as soon as it is launched?

Answer options

• A. Elastic IP
• B. Private IP
• C. Public IP
• D. Internet gateway

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The EC2 instance automatically receives a Private IP address when it is launched in a VPC subnet, which allows it to communicate within the VPC. An Elastic IP and Public IP require additional configuration, and an Internet gateway is not directly assigned to individual instances.
