Amazon Exam ANS-C01 Topic 1 Question 43 Discussion

Actual exam question for Amazon's ANS-C01 exam

Question #: 43
Topic #: 1

A company needs to manage Amazon EC2 instances through command line interfaces for Linux hosts and Windows hosts. The EC2 instances are deployed in an environment in which there is no route to the internet. The company must implement role-based access control for management of the instances. The company has a standalone on-premises environment.

Which approach will meet these requirements with the LEAST maintenance overhead?

ASet up an AWS Direct Connect connection between the on-premises environment and the VPC where the instances are deployed. Configure routing, security groups, and ACLs. Connect to the instances by using the Direct Connect connection.

BDeploy and configure AWS Systems Manager Agent (SSM Agent) on each instance. Deploy VPC endpoints for Systems Manager Session Manager. Connect to the instances by using Session Manager.

CEstablish an AWS Site-to-Site VPN connection between the on-premises environment and the VPC where the instances are deployed. Configure routing, security groups, and ACLs. Connect to the instances by using the Site-to-Site VPN connection.

DDeploy an appliance to the VPC where the instances are deployed. Assign a public IP address to the appliance. Configure security groups and ACLs. Connect to the instances by using the appliance as an intermediary.

Option B seems like the best choice here. Using the SSM Agent and Session Manager reduces the maintenance overhead compared to setting up a Direct Connect or VPN connection.
