This CV0-004 practice question tests your understanding of security. Match the stated requirement to the specific cloud service, access model, or configuration option — many options are valid in isolation but not for this scenario. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.
Exhibit
Refer to the exhibit.
Condition: {
IpAddress: {
"aws:SourceIp": "192.168.1.0/24"
}
}
The above condition is included in an IAM policy. What does this condition restrict?
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Access to only requests from the IP range 192.168.1.0/24.
Option A is correct because the aws:SourceIp condition key limits the source IP addresses to the specified range.
Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
✗
Access through a VPN connection.
Why it's wrong here
The condition does not specify VPN; it's IP-based.
✓
Access to only requests from the IP range 192.168.1.0/24.
Why this is correct
The condition directly limits source IPs to that range.
Related concept
Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
✗
Access to only private IP addresses.
Why it's wrong here
While 192.168.1.0/24 is private, the condition specifically matches that exact range, not all private IPs.
✗
Access from a specific VPC.
Why it's wrong here
The condition does not reference a VPC; it's IP-based.

TExam Day Tips
→Underline the problem statement mentally.
→Watch for words such as best, first, most likely and least administrative effort.
→Review why wrong options are wrong, not only why the correct option is correct.
Key takeaway
Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Real-world example
How this comes up in practice
A practitioner preparing for the CV0-004 exam encounters this exact type of scenario on the job. The correct answer here is not the most general option — it is the best answer for the specific constraint described. Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option. Real exam questions reward reading the full scenario before eliminating options, because the constraint defines which answer fits.
