In order to provide subnet level isolation, you want to force instance-A in one subnet to route through a security appliance, called instance-B, in another subnet.

What should you do?

  1. Create a more specific route than the system-generated subnet route, pointing the next hop to instance-B with no tag.
  2. Create a more specific route than the system-generated subnet route, pointing the next hop to instance-B with a tag applied to instance-A.
  3. Delete the system-generated subnet route and create a specific route to instance-B with a tag applied to instance-A.
  4. Move instance-B to another VPC and, using multi-NIC, connect instance-B's interface to instance-A's network. Configure the appropriate routes to force traffic through to instance-A.

Answer(s): D

  2. Create a route to reach the Master, pointing to the default internet gateway.
  3. Create the appropriate firewall policy in the VPC to allow traffic from Master node IP address to the instance.
