QUESTION 676
An application hosted at the EC2 instance receives an HTTP request from ELB. The same request has an X-Forwarded-For header, which has three IP addresses. Which system’s IP will be a part of this header?

A.    Previous Request IP address.
B.    Client IP address.
C.    All of the answers listed here.
D.    Load Balancer IP address.

Answer: C
Explanation:
When a user sends a request to ELB over HTTP/HTTPS, the request header log at the instance will only receive the IP of ELB. This is because ELB is the interceptor between the EC2 instance and the client request. To get the client IP, use the header X-Forwarded-For in header. The client IP address in the X-Forwarded-For request header is followed by the IP addresses of each successive proxy that passes along the request. The last IP address is the IP address that connects to the back-end application instance. e.g. if the HTTP request already has a header when it reaches the Load Balancer, the IP address from which the request came is appended at the end of the header followed by the IP address of the Load Balancer. In such cases, the X-Forwarded-For request header takes the following form:
X-Forwarded-For: clientIPAddress, previousRequestIPAddress, LoadBalancerIPAddress.

QUESTION 677
You need to develop and run some new applications on AWS and you know that Elastic Beanstalk and CloudFormation can both help as a deployment mechanism for a broad range of AWS resources. Which of the following statements best describes the differences between Elastic Beanstalk and CloudFormation?

A.    Elastic Beanstalk uses Elastic load balancing and CloudFormation doesn’t.
B.    CloudFormation is faster in deploying applications than Elastic Beanstalk.
C.    Elastic Beanstalk is faster in deploying applications than CloudFormation.
D.    CloudFormation is much more powerful than Elastic Beanstalk, because you can actually design and script custom resources

Answer: D
Explanation:
These services are designed to complement each other. AWS Elastic Beanstalk provides an environment to easily develop and run applications in the cloud. It is integrated with developer tools and provides a one-stop experience for you to manage the lifecycle of your applications. AWS CloudFormation is a convenient deployment mechanism for a broad range of AWS resources. It supports the infrastructure needs of many different types of applications such as existing enterprise applications, legacy applications, applications built using a variety of AWS resources and container-based solutions (including those built using AWS Elastic Beanstalk).
AWS CloudFormation introduces two new concepts: The template, a JSON-format, text-based file that describes all the AWS resources you need to deploy to run your application and the stack, the set of AWS resources that are created and managed as a single unit when AWS CloudFormation instantiates a template.

QUESTION 678
You need to set up a security certificate for a client’s e-commerce website as it will use the HTTPS protocol. Which of the below AWS services do you need to access to manage your SSL server certificate?

A.    AWS Directory Service
B.    AWS Identity & Access Management
C.    AWS CloudFormation
D.    Amazon Route 53

Answer: B
Explanation:
AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a web service that enables Amazon Web Services (AWS) customers to manage users and user permissions in AWS.
All your SSL server certificates are managed by AWS Identity and Access management (IAM).

QUESTION 679
When controlling access to Amazon EC2 resources, each Amazon EBS Snapshot has a ______ attribute that controls which AWS accounts can use the snapshot.

A.    createVolumePermission
B.    LaunchPermission
C.    SharePermission
D.    RequestPermission

Answer: A
Explanation:
Each Amazon EBS Snapshot has a createVolumePermission attribute that you can set to one or more AWS Account IDs to share the AMI with those AWS Accounts. To allow several AWS Accounts to use a particular EBS snapshot, you can use the snapshots’s createVolumePermission attribute to include a list of the accounts that can use it.

QUESTION 686
Your company has decided to set up a new AWS account for test and dev purposes. They already use AWS for production, but would like a new account dedicated for test and dev so as to not accidentally break the production environment. You launch an exact replica of your production environment using a CloudFormation template that your company uses in production.
However CloudFormation fails. You use the exact same CloudFormation template in production, so the failure is something to do with your new AWS account. The CloudFormation template is trying to launch 60 new EC2 instances in a single AZ. After some research you discover that the problem is;

A.    For all new AWS accounts there is a soft limit of 20 EC2 instances per region. You should submit the limit increase form and retry the template after your limit has been increased.
B.    For all new AWS accounts there is a soft limit of 20 EC2 instances per availability zone. You should submit the limit increase form and retry the template after your limit has been increased.
C.    You cannot launch more than 20 instances in your default VPC, instead reconfigure the CloudFormation template to provision the instances in a custom VPC.
D.    Your CloudFormation template is configured to use the parent account and not the new account.
Change the account number in the CloudFormation template and relaunch the template.
