VCP-VMC 2024 Question 135
Select 2An organization is deploying a hybrid cloud solution using VMware Cloud on AWS. They want to establish secure connectivity between their on-premises data center and VMware Cloud on AWS while also ensuring low-latency, high-bandwidth connectivity to an AWS VPC. Which combination of configurations should they implement?
- A
Configure a Layer 2 VPN between the on-premises data center and VMware Cloud on AWS.
- B
Establish an AWS Direct Connect connection between the on-premises data center and the AWS environment.
- C
Enable VMware Managed Transit to connect VMware Cloud on AWS to the AWS VPC.
- D
Set up a Layer 3 VPN between the on-premises data center and VMware Cloud on AWS.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: B, C
Explanation
To meet the requirements of secure connectivity and low-latency, high-bandwidth communication between the on-premises data center and AWS VPC, the organization must use AWS Direct Connect for on-premises-to-AWS connectivity and VMware Managed Transit for connecting VMware Cloud on AWS to the AWS VPC. This combination ensures optimal performance and secure interactions across the hybrid cloud.
- A. Incorrect.
Layer 2 VPN is used for extending on-premises networks into the cloud in specific scenarios but does not address the requirement for low-latency, high-bandwidth connectivity to an AWS VPC.
- B. Correct.
AWS Direct Connect provides a private, low-latency, and high-bandwidth connection between the on-premises data center and the AWS environment, which satisfies part of the requirement.
- C. Correct.
VMware Managed Transit enables connectivity between VMware Cloud on AWS and AWS VPCs, ensuring efficient and secure communication between the two environments, which satisfies the second part of the requirement.
- D. Incorrect.
Layer 3 VPN provides secure connectivity between the on-premises data center and VMware Cloud on AWS, but it does not directly address the requirement for low-latency, high-bandwidth connectivity to AWS VPCs.
