AWS Certified Advanced Networking - Specialty (ANS-C01) Audio Study Guide & Podcasts

Andrew and Ava unpack Transit Gateway’s regional routing reality, the Cloud WAN control plane, and the CloudWatch traps that love to ambush ANS-C01 candidates.

Andrew drags Ava through the most common ANS-C01 traps: Site-to-Site VPN sizing, accelerated VPN gotchas, and why VPC peering is emotionally and technically non-transitive. Plus: why PrivateLink is not your secret router.

Security Groups and route propagation: two AWS networking topics that look simple until the exam turns them into a logic puzzle. Andrew and Ava break down stateful SG reality, longest-prefix routing, and the traps that wreck your score.

Andrew and Ava walk through VPC Flow Logs and Transit Gateway hub-and-spoke—the stuff the exam loves to twist with one word like “real-time” or “packet data.” Expect traps, route table therapy, and a small amount of grumpy wisdom.
