A company has setup a DirectConnect connection between their on-premise location and their AWS VPC. They want to setup redundancy incase the DirectConnect connection fails. What can they do in this regard? Choose all the options that apply

Answer options:

A.Setup another DirectConnect connection
B.Setup an IPSec VPN Connection
C.Setup S3 connection
D.Setup a connection via EC2 instances

Answer – A and B
This is clearly mentioned in the AWS FAQ’s.
If you have established a second AWS Direct Connect connection, traffic will failover to the second link automatically. We recommend enabling Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) when configuring your connections to ensure fast detection and failover. If you have configured a back-up IPsec VPN connection instead, all VPC traffic will failover to the VPN connection automatically. Traffic to/from public resources such as Amazon S3 will be routed over the Internet. If you do not have a backup AWS Direct Connect link or a IPsec VPN link, then Amazon VPC traffic will be dropped in the event of a failure. Traffic to/from public resources will be routed over the Internet.
