First initiate, then accept, then add routes, then update security groups, and finally network ACLs.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Initiate VPC peering connection request, Accept VPC peering connection request, Add routes to route tables, Update security groups, Update network ACLs
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because you must first request the peering connection, then the other VPC accepts, then you add routes to enable traffic, then adjust security groups, and finally network ACLs as the last layer of access control.
- ✗
Accept VPC peering connection request, Initiate VPC peering connection request, Add routes to route tables, Update security groups, Update network ACLs
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because the acceptance must happen after the initiation request; the order of initiation and acceptance cannot be reversed.
- ✗
Initiate VPC peering connection request, Accept VPC peering connection request, Update security groups, Add routes to route tables, Update network ACLs
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because routes must be added before updating security groups; otherwise, the route to the peered VPC does not exist, making security group updates ineffective for cross-VPC traffic.
- ✗
Initiate VPC peering connection request, Accept VPC peering connection request, Update network ACLs, Update security groups, Add routes to route tables
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because routes must be added before both security groups and network ACLs, and network ACLs are typically updated after security groups as a final step.
