Question 330
In an AWS networking assessment, AWS selects a propagated VPN route instead of a Direct Connect route after a route priority change. Which technical explanation BEST accounts for the observed condition?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Multiple healthy links can compete for the same destination; configuration controls the selected route. This explains the observed network behavior, which can be checked by verifying that the routing tables show the expected preferred next hop for each corporate prefix.
Incorrect Answers
Failback requires explicit routing preference rather than assuming an active link automatically dominates. The reported evidence instead concerns gateway route selection and BGP routing preferences influence preferred hybrid forwarding: multiple healthy links can compete for the same destination; configuration controls the selected route.
Peer connection state does not automatically propagate remote VPC CIDR changes. The reported evidence instead concerns gateway route selection and BGP routing preferences influence preferred hybrid forwarding: multiple healthy links can compete for the same destination; configuration controls the selected route.
Coarse summarization can hide reachability differences and route withdrawals from downstream peers. The reported evidence instead concerns gateway route selection and BGP routing preferences influence preferred hybrid forwarding: multiple healthy links can compete for the same destination; configuration controls the selected route.
