Question 40
An AWS network engineer must address this specific condition: A public-facing NLB TLS listener needs AWS-managed certificate deployment while backend traffic may use TCP. Which implementation or operational change BEST meets the requirement?
Explanation
Correct Answer
NLB TLS termination is different from a TCP listener passing encrypted data through to targets. Confirm the change by checking that client TLS negotiates at the NLB listener with the expected certificate.
Incorrect Answers
Mutual TLS verifies client certificate identity separately from the listener's server certificate. That adjustment does not address the controlling condition: NLB TLS termination is different from a TCP listener passing encrypted data through to targets. Verify client TLS negotiates at the NLB listener with the expected certificate.
End-to-end confidentiality requires securing both client-to-ALB and ALB-to-target legs when policy demands. That adjustment does not address the controlling condition: NLB TLS termination is different from a TCP listener passing encrypted data through to targets. Verify client TLS negotiates at the NLB listener with the expected certificate.
Load-balancer TLS termination could change where mutual authentication occurs. That adjustment does not address the controlling condition: NLB TLS termination is different from a TCP listener passing encrypted data through to targets. Verify client TLS negotiates at the NLB listener with the expected certificate.
