Question 140
In an AWS networking assessment, the Direct Connect gateway allowed-prefix list was narrowed and an on-premises router stopped receiving a required TGW summary. Which technical explanation BEST accounts for the observed condition?
Explanation
Correct Answer
An association change can alter BGP-originated reachability without deleting the physical VIF. This explains the observed network behavior, which can be checked by verifying that corporate routing learns the intended summary and affected VPCs become reachable.
Incorrect Answers
Peer connection state does not automatically propagate remote VPC CIDR changes. For the stated conditions, an association change can alter BGP-originated reachability without deleting the physical VIF. The more specific mechanism is a Transit Gateway association advertises only explicitly configured allowed-prefix ranges toward on-premises.
A viable physical circuit may carry no traffic for a destination whose specific route was withdrawn. The decisive technical distinction is a Transit Gateway association advertises only explicitly configured allowed-prefix ranges toward on-premises; an association change can alter BGP-originated reachability without deleting the physical VIF.
The gateway cannot advertise a nonmatching narrow prefix solely because it was placed in an allowed list. The decisive technical distinction is a Transit Gateway association advertises only explicitly configured allowed-prefix ranges toward on-premises; an association change can alter BGP-originated reachability without deleting the physical VIF.
