Question 1
An AWS network engineer must address this specific condition: A TXT record that verifies control of a DNS name is accidentally created in the wrong private hosted zone. Which implementation or operational change BEST meets the requirement?
Explanation
Correct Answer
A private-only record does not prove control to external validation systems querying public DNS. Confirm the change by checking that external authoritative queries return the expected validation token.
Incorrect Answers
Split-horizon configuration can intentionally prevent public answers from leaking into an internal namespace. It does not directly achieve the required result: external authoritative queries return the expected validation token. The constraint is that a private-only record does not prove control to external validation systems querying public DNS.
Private zone visibility follows VPC associations rather than AWS organization membership alone. That adjustment does not address the controlling condition: a private-only record does not prove control to external validation systems querying public DNS. Verify external authoritative queries return the expected validation token.
A reachable resolver can correctly answer NXDOMAIN when no matching record exists. In this situation, a private-only record does not prove control to external validation systems querying public DNS. The proposed change does not ensure external authoritative queries return the expected validation token.
