Palo Alto Networks System Engineer – Prisma Cloud — Question 5

What is a permanent public IP called on Amazon Web Services (AWS)?

Answer options

• A. floating IP
• B. Public IP (PIP)
• C. reserved IP
• D. Elastic IP (EIP)

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Elastic IP (EIP), as it specifically refers to a static public IP address that can be associated with AWS resources. The other options, such as floating IP and reserved IP, do not accurately describe AWS's terminology for a permanent public IP address, while Public IP (PIP) is typically assigned dynamically.
