SOA-C02 Exam Dumps : AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate (SOA-C02)

The rejected traffic in the flow logs is due to the network ACL associated with the subnet not allowing outbound traffic for the ephemeral port range.

Network ACLs:

Network ACLs act as a firewall for controlling traffic in and out of one or more subnets.

By default, NACLs allow all inbound and outbound traffic, but custom NACLs require specific rules to allow traffic.

Ephemeral Ports:

Ephemeral ports are temporary ports used for client-side communication. The default range is 1024-65535.

Ensure that the network ACL allows outbound traffic on these ports.

Steps to Resolve:

Check the network ACL rules for the associated subnet.

Add outbound rules to allow traffic from the ephemeral port range (1024-65535).

Objective:

Receive a notification when both disk space usage and DiskReadOps exceed threshold values.

Composite Alarms:

Composite alarms allow combining multiple metric alarms into a single alarm. Notifications are triggered only when all conditions are met.

Steps to Implement:

Step 1: Install the CloudWatch agent on the EC2 instances and configure it to monitor disk space.

Step 2: Create individual metric alarms:

One for disk space usage.

One for the DiskReadOps metric.

Step 3: Create a composite alarm:

Include both metric alarms.

Configure the composite alarm to send notifications to the SNS topic when both conditions are met.

CloudWatch Agent Installation:Install CloudWatch Agent

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

Option B: This would trigger notifications for either condition, not both simultaneously.

Option C: EBSByteBalance% is unrelated to free disk space.

Option D: Detailed monitoring is not required for composite alarms.

To determine the service costs incurred by each developer, follow these steps:

Activate the createdBy Tag:

Tagging resources with a createdBy tag helps identify which user created the resource. This tag should be applied consistently across all resources created by the developers.
