Which solution meets these requirements?
Provision a NAT instance in a public subnet. Modify each private subnet’s route table with a default route that points to the NAT instance.
Provision a NAT instance in a private subnet. Modify each private subnet’s route table with a default route that points to the NAT instance.
Provision a NAT gateway in a public subnet. Modify each private subnet’s route table with a default route that points to the NAT gateway.
Provision a NAT gateway in a private subnet. Modify each private subnet’s route table with a default route that points to the NAT gateway.
Explanations:
NAT instance must be in a public subnet for it to access the internet. Private subnets can’t route traffic to a NAT instance in a public subnet unless the NAT instance itself is in a public subnet.
NAT instance should be in a public subnet to allow internet access. Placing it in a private subnet restricts its ability to route internet traffic.
NAT gateway must be in a public subnet to allow access to the internet. The route table in private subnets should route traffic to the NAT gateway. NAT gateways are a managed service that minimizes operational overhead.
NAT gateway must be in a public subnet to route traffic to the internet. A NAT gateway in a private subnet cannot provide internet access.
If I’m correct, the answer is:
Provision a NAT gateway in a public subnet. Modify each private subnet’s route table with a default route that points to the NAT gateway.
I infer that the answer is:
Provision a NAT gateway in a public subnet. Modify each private subnet’s route table with a default route that points to the NAT gateway.
