Week 7— Network Design · Network Implementation
10 days- Study →
Network Design
Network Design is 30% of ANS-C01 and covers architecting AWS networks that meet connectivity, performance, security, and cost requirements. Expect scenario questions where you choose VPC topologies, hybrid links, routing, and segmentation, then justify the design against constraints like overlapping CIDRs, throughput, HA, and inspection needs across multi-account and multi-Region environments.
📅 Days 45–49🎯 ~16 questions/day⚖ 30% of exam- ✓Designing VPC CIDR allocation, subnets, and peering versus Transit Gateway topologies
- ✓Choosing Direct Connect, Site-to-Site VPN, or SD-WAN for hybrid connectivity and failover
- ✓Applying route table design, BGP attributes, and longest-prefix match for traffic steering

Network Implementation
Network Implementation is 26% of ANS-C01 and covers building and configuring AWS networking: VPCs, subnets, route tables, gateways, Transit Gateway, Direct Connect, VPN, and hybrid routing. The exam tests this through scenario questions where you choose the correct topology, routing configuration, or connectivity option and justify it against cost, redundancy, and performance constraints.
📅 Days 45–49🎯 ~37 questions/day⚖ 26% of exam- ✓Designing VPC route tables, subnet associations, and internet/NAT gateway egress paths
- ✓Configuring AWS Site-to-Site VPN tunnels, BGP ASNs, and static versus dynamic routing
- ✓Deploying Transit Gateway attachments, route table segmentation, and inter-VPC peering topologies
