Question 560
An AWS network engineer must address this specific condition: A Site-to-Site VPN tunnel reports UP but a remote application sees failed connections after the corporate firewall policy changed. Which implementation or operational change BEST meets the requirement?
Explanation
Correct Answer
An established IKE security association can coexist with filtered or misrouted application packets. Confirm the change by checking that the application flow succeeds while unrelated traffic remains blocked.
Incorrect Answers
Coarse summarization can hide reachability differences and route withdrawals from downstream peers. The needed control instead targets VPN tunnel availability does not prove subnet routing and stateful firewall authorization for application flows; it succeeds when the application flow succeeds while unrelated traffic remains blocked.
Failback requires explicit routing preference rather than assuming an active link automatically dominates. That adjustment does not address the controlling condition: an established IKE security association can coexist with filtered or misrouted application packets. Verify the application flow succeeds while unrelated traffic remains blocked.
The new prefix needs explicit route visibility even when the existing original VPC addresses work. It does not directly achieve the required result: the application flow succeeds while unrelated traffic remains blocked. The constraint is that an established IKE security association can coexist with filtered or misrouted application packets.
