2. AWS Networking Hands on exercises (Basics to Advance)
Create VPC with single public subnet, launch EC2 instance and connect over internet
Create VPC with Pubic and Private subnet, connect to EC2 instance in Private subnet via EC2 instance in Public subnet
Create NAT Gateway and allow EC2 instances in Private subnet to access internet through NAT Gateway
Create VPC Peering between VPCs across AWS regions and connect to EC2 instance over private IP by using VPC peering connection
Create VPC endpoint gateway for S3 and access S3 contents from EC2 instance in Private subnet without requiring internet connection
Create and use VPC Private Link to expose your Web service privately to application hosted in another VPC
Implement AWS region level failover using AWS Route53
Hosting website on S3 using custom domain name from GoDaddy
Hosting HTTPS enabled website using S3 and CloudFront
Advanced Networking: Setup Site-To-Site VPN between AWS VPC and simulated on-premise network
Transit Gateway - Setup communication between multiple VPCs
AWS Client VPN end-to-end set up and exploring features like Split Tunnel and accessing remote networks via Client VPN connection
Additional exercises

Enable Sticky session on ALB
Enable HTTPS on Application Load Balancer
ALB Path based Routing
AWS CloudFormation template to deploy VPC and related sources in automated manner
Note:
This course does not cover all details/limits/what if kind of contents which are required to be prepared for AWS networking certification exam however this course instead focuses on understanding the core concepts by doing hands on exercise.
