Day 4 – AWS Lab & Assignment.
Part – 1: GeneralQ1. What is the difference between Network firewall & Os level firewall?
Network Firewall: Firewall filters traffic going from Internet to secured LAN and vice versa. Is a hardware based.
 OS Level Firewall: A Operating system firewall is a software application or suite of applications installed on a singular computer. Is a software based.
 Q2. What are the type of private key?
 A private key is a large, randomly-generated number with hundreds of digits. For simplicity, they are usually represented as strings of alphanumeric characters.
 Example of Private key: KxFC1jmwwCoACiCAWZ3eXa96mBM6tb3TYzGmf6YwgdGWZgawvrtJ.
Well-known secret-key algorithms include:
 Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).
Triple Data Encryption Standard (3DES).
Rivest Cipher 4 (RC4).
 Q3. What is the difference between public and private ip?
 A public IP address identifies you to the wider internet so that all the information you are searching for can find you.
 A private IP address is used within a private network to connect securely to other devices within that same network.
 Q4. What is Region and Availability zone?
 AWS Regions: Are separate geographic areas that AWS uses to house its infrastructure. These are distributed around the world so that customers can choose a region closest to them in order to host their cloud infrastructure there. The closer your region is to you, the better, so that you can reduce network latency as much as possible for your end-users. You want to be near the data centers for fast service.
 AWS Availability Zones: An AWS Availability Zone (AZ) is the logical building block that makes up an AWS Region. Each region has multiple Availability Zones.
 Q5. What are the types of Storage and use case of it?
 There are three main cloud storage types: object storage, file storage, and block storage. Each offers its own advantages and has its own use cases.
 Object storage : Is a technology that stores and manages data in an unstructured format called objects.
 
Here are common use cases: Analytic, Data Lake, Data Archiving, rich media, backup and recovery and cloud native application data.
 File storage: Is a method for storing data in the cloud that provides servers and applications access to data through shared file systems.
 Here are common use cases: Web serving, Content management, Analytics, Media and entertainment, home directories, Database backups and Development tools.
 Block storage: Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) provides block level storage volumes for use with EC2 instances.
 Here are common use cases: EBS is Amazon’s block-level storage solution used with the EC2 cloud service to store persistent data. This means that the data is kept on the AWS EBS servers even when the EC2 instances are shut down.
 Q6. What is Policy and Permission in IAM?
 Policy: Is an object in AWS that, when associated with an identity or resource, defines their permissions.
 Permissions : In the policies determine whether the request is allowed or denied.
 Q7. Write down and understanding of a concept of network, subnet, network firewall, internet gateway, route table?
 Network: Is the combination of two or more computers and their connecting links.
 Subnet: A subnet, or subnetwork, is a segmented piece of a larger network.
 Network Firewall: Network firewall is a security device used to stop unauthorized access to private networks connected to the Internet.
 Internet gateway: An Internet gateway transfers communications between an enterprise network and the Internet.
 Route Table: A routing table is a set of rules that is used to determine where data packets traveling over an Internet Protocol network will be directed.
 
 
 
Q8. Explain a top 5 DNS records and their use cases in DNS server?
                                                                                                                                                                                
The following are the five major DNS record types:
 
A record: The “A” stands for “address” and this is the most fundamental type of DNS record. It indicates the IP address of a given domain.
 Use case: Address Record points a domain or subdomain to an IP address.
For example, you can use it for store.website.com or blog.website.com and point it to where you have your store.
 AAAA record: Sometimes referred to as a quad A record gives the IPv6 information when a DNS query is performed.
 Use case: AAAA record is used to find the IP address of a computer connected to the internet from a name. The AAAA record is conceptually similar to the A record, but it allows you to specify the IPv6 address of the server, rather than the IPv4.
 CNAME record: A Canonical Name or CNAME record is a type of DNS record that maps an alias name to a true or canonical domain name.
 Used case: CNAME record can map the web address http://www.example.com to the actual web site for the domain example.com.
NS record: Nameserver record is a DNS record that contains the name of the authoritative name server within a domain.  When a client queries for an IP address, it can find the IP address of their intended destination from an NS record via a DNS lookup.
 Use case: NS records tell the Internet where to go to find out a domain’s IP address.
MX record: A mail exchanger record specifies the mail server responsible for accepting email messages on behalf of a domain name.          
 Use case: A DNS mail exchange (MX) record directs email to a mail server.
