SAP-C02 Continuous Improvement for Existing Solutions Practice Question
Network Topology
A security engineer runs the above command to list network interfaces attached to security group sg-12345678. The engineer notices that instance i-0a1b2c3d4e5f67890 has two network interfaces but only one is shown in the output. What is the MOST likely reason?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
The second interface is associated with a different security group.
The command filters by security group ID, so only interfaces in that group are shown. The second interface may belong to a different security group. Option A is wrong because the filter is by group-id, not instance-id. Option B is wrong because the command does not filter by device index. Option C is wrong because the command can list all interfaces in the group regardless of attachment.
