Your IT Security department has deployed a firewall on an AWS EC2 Instance. They have mandated that all traffic from certain applications needs to move through the firewall. In such a case, what considerations should be made for the EC2 instance for maximum performance? Choose 2 answers.

Answer options:

A.Consider using an Amazon Linux AMI only.
B.The underlying Instance type.
C.Driver support for the Intel Virtual Function and Elastic Network Adapter (ENA).
D.Consider using NACLs.

Answer - B and C
Yes, if you choose a higher instance type, you will get better performance. So, consider using a higher instance type.
Also, use Enhanced Networking for better networking support.
Option A is invalid because it is not necessary to use an Amazon Linux AMI only.
Option D is invalid because this is good from a security aspect but not a performance aspect.
