AWS VPC and Networking in depth: Learn practically in 8 hrs

AWS Networking from basics to advanced with 20+ simple to complex real life hands on exercises

What you'll learn:

• Networking in AWS - Basic to Advanced Networking concepts by doing hands on exercises
• Whiteboard sessions to see how various networking components work together
• Understand how to secure your infrastructure by using appropriate Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) components and firewalls
• AWS Public and Private Network connectivity options and their implementation
• In depth understanding of VPC, CIDR, Subnets, Route Tables, Security Groups, NACL, NAT Gateway, NAT Instance, VPC Peering, VPC Endpoint, VPC PrivateLink, VPN connection, Direct Connect, Route53 Failover, Transit VPC and Transit Gateway

This course aims to build the complete understanding of Amazon Web Services (AWS) Networking from ground up where students will understand the networking core concepts by doing exercises on their own.

This course contains 2 sections. First section is about Understanding AWSNetworking where Ihave explained starting from very basics the AWSVPC, VPC components and Private connectivity options in AWS . If you are already aware of AWSnetworking components, then you may want to skip this section and jump directly to hands on exercises section.

1. Understanding AWSNetworking in depth

• Physical on premises networking vs AWSVPC

• Getting familiar with AWSVPCterminologies - VPC, Subnets, Route tables, Internet Gateway, Security Group, Network ACL

• Understanding VPC CIDR

• Understanding Subnets and Route Tables

• Public Subnet vs Private Subnet

• Understanding NAT(Network Address Translation) Concept

• NATGateway and NATinstance

• AWSPrivate Connectivity options

• Understanding VPCPeering

• VPCEndpoint and Privatelink for private connectivity to AWSServices

• VPNconnection / Direct Connect

• Transit VPC

• Transit Gateway

• AWSClient VPN

2. AWSNetworking Hands on exercises (Basics to Advance)

1. Create VPCwith single public subnet, launch EC2 instance and connect over internet

2. Create VPCwith Pubic and Private subnet, connect to EC2 instance in Private subnet via EC2 instance in Public subnet

3. Create NATGateway and allow EC2 instances in Private subnet to access internet through NAT Gateway

4. Create and use NATEC2 instance instead of NATGateway

5. Create VPCPeering between VPCs across AWSregions and connect to EC2 instance over private IP by using VPCpeering connection

6. Create VPCendpoint gateway for S3 and access S3 contents from EC2 instance in Private subnet without requiring internet connection

7. Create and use VPCPrivate Link to expose your Web service privately to application hosted in another VPC

8. Implement AWSregion level failover using AWSRoute53

9. Hosting website on S3 using custom domain name from GoDaddy

10. Hosting HTTPSenabled website using S3 and CloudFront

11. Advanced Networking:Setup Site-To-Site VPNbetween AWSVPCand simulated on-premise network

12. Advanced Networking: Setup AWS and Google Site to Site VPNusing Dynamic BGPRouting

13. Transit Gateway -Setup communication between multiple VPCs and On-premise network

14. AWSClient VPNand various scenarios like accessing Internet, Split Tunnel, accessing Peered VPCs via Client VPNconnection

Additional exercises:

1. Application Load Balancer - distribute traffic to backend EC2 instances

2. Enable Sticky session on ALB

3. Enable HTTPSon Application Load Balancer

4. ALBPath based Routing

Note:This course does not cover all minute details/limits/what if kind of contents which are required to be remembered for AWSnetworking certification exam however this course instead focuses on understanding the core concepts well by doing hands on exercise.
