Question 540
In an AWS networking assessment, an on-premises resolver cannot find a private Route 53 zone because its conditional forwarder points to an outbound endpoint. Which technical explanation BEST accounts for the observed condition?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Inbound and outbound endpoint directions describe where queries enter or leave the VPC DNS service. This explains the observed network behavior, which can be checked by verifying that on-premises clients resolve associated private hosted zone names through the inbound endpoint.
Incorrect Answers
Publicly visible hosted-zone NS addresses do not expose the private record namespace on the internet. The reported evidence instead concerns hybrid on-premises-to-AWS queries require an inbound Resolver endpoint, not an outbound endpoint: inbound and outbound endpoint directions describe where queries enter or leave the VPC DNS service.
A forwarding rule controls names but does not increase packet-processing capacity by itself. The reported evidence instead concerns hybrid on-premises-to-AWS queries require an inbound Resolver endpoint, not an outbound endpoint: inbound and outbound endpoint directions describe where queries enter or leave the VPC DNS service.
A single DNS endpoint address can become an availability bottleneck and may violate service requirements. The reported evidence instead concerns hybrid on-premises-to-AWS queries require an inbound Resolver endpoint, not an outbound endpoint: inbound and outbound endpoint directions describe where queries enter or leave the VPC DNS service.
