Question

A company uses AWS Direct Connect to connect its corporate network to multiple VPCs in the same AWS account and the same AWS Region. Each VPC uses its own private VIF and its own virtual LAN on the Direct Connect connection. The company has grown and will soon surpass the limit of VPCs and private VIFs for each connection. What is the MOST scalable way to add VPCs with on-premises connectivity?

Options

  • AProvision a new Direct Connect connection to handle the additional VPCs. Use the new
  • BCreate virtual private gateways for each VPC that is over the service quota. Use AWS Site-to-Site
  • CCreate a Direct Connect gateway, and add virtual private gateway associations to the VPCs.
  • DCreate a transit gateway, and attach the VPCs. Create a Direct Connect gateway, and associate

Explanation

When a company requires connectivity to multiple VPCs over AWS Direct Connect, a scalable solution is to use a transit gateway. A transit gateway is a hub that can interconnect multiple VPCs and VPN connections. The VPCs can communicate with each other over the transit gateway, and on-premises networks can communicate with the VPCs through the Direct Connect gateway. This solution provides a central point of management and simplifies the configuration of network routing. By associating the Direct Connect gateway with the transit gateway, traffic between the VPCs and the on-premises network can be routed through the Direct Connect
