Shared VPC and Connectivity Quiz

This quiz tests your understanding of Shared VPC and Connectivity.


  1. How does TGW propagation relate to VPC route tables?
    • A) 100 TGW prefixes is a fixed Shared VPC ceiling
    • B) TGW routes are not automatically propagated; the owner adds VPC static routes targeting the TGW
    • C) All tables share one quota
    • D) CIDR quota can never be reached first
Show Answer

Answer: B) TGW routes are not automatically propagated; the owner adds VPC static routes targeting the TGW

Explanation: TGW tables have a combined default 10,000 routes; VPC non-propagated routes default to 500. Do not confuse the VGW propagated-route 100 limit with TGW totals.


  1. Which owner resource cannot a Shared VPC participant describe?
    • A) Subnet
    • B) Its own security group
    • C) NAT Gateway
    • D) Route table
Show Answer

Answer: C) NAT Gateway

Explanation: Participants cannot describe owner NAT gateways. Central inventories, logs, and delegated read paths can still provide audit evidence.


  1. How should LBC subnet discovery be designed for Shared VPC?
    • A) Assume every version succeeds
    • B) Validate controller mode, permissions, and tag visibility; consider explicit subnet IDs
    • C) Always have the owner create Ingress
    • D) Discover only through NAT gateways
Show Answer

Answer: B) Validate controller mode, permissions, and tag visibility; consider explicit subnet IDs

Explanation: Owner tags are not automatically shared. Explicit subnets are predictable, but this does not establish failure of every discovery mode.


  1. Which statement correctly describes long-lived VPC Lattice connections?
    • A) Services and resources both have a 10-minute lifetime
    • B) Distinguish the 10-minute service lifetime from 350-second resource idle timeout; test protocol/reconnect behavior
    • C) HTTP listeners natively support every WebSocket
    • D) No path supports long-lived traffic
Show Answer

Answer: B) Distinguish the 10-minute service lifetime from 350-second resource idle timeout; test protocol/reconnect behavior

Explanation: Resources do not have the same lifetime limit. TLS listeners or resource paths can serve WebSockets, subject to protocol and authorization requirements.


  1. Which statement correctly describes Route 53 Profiles' DNS priority rule?
    • A) The local VPC rule always wins over the Profile
    • B) The Profile rule always wins over the local VPC
    • C) Local VPC wins when names match, but if the Profile has a more specific name registered, the Profile wins
    • D) Priority is determined randomly
Show Answer

Answer: C) Local VPC wins when names match, but if the Profile has a more specific name registered, the Profile wins

Explanation: For example, if the local VPC has an example.com rule and the Profile has a more specific test.example.com rule, the Profile applies. This is why it's recommended to formalize that "the central Profile never owns a name more specific than the namespace delegated to a workload."
