AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate (legacy) — Question 89

If you want to launch Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) Instances and assign each Instance a predetermined private IP address you should:

Answer options

• A. Assign a group or sequential Elastic IP address to the instances
• B. Launch the instances in a Placement Group
• C. Launch the instances in the Amazon virtual Private Cloud (VPC).
• D. Use standard EC2 instances since each instance gets a private Domain Name Service (DNS) already
• E. Launch the Instance from a private Amazon Machine image (Mil)

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because launching instances in the Amazon VPC allows you to specify private IP addresses for the instances. The other options do not provide the capability to assign predetermined private IPs; for instance, Elastic IPs are public, and standard EC2 instances do not allow for custom private IP selection.
