This lab demonstrates the concept of granting a AWS Lambda function access to the internet while the function is attached to an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC).
In contrast to a standard lab. an Assessment Version of a lab provides high-level instructions with hints to implement the lab objectives and learners can use the 'Check score' functionality to validate their progress. Learners also have the option of detailed instructions to complete the lab.
Objectives
- Test the Lambda function connectivity to the internet and verify the issue.
- Identify the issues in the existing configuration and remediate the configuration to allow the Lambda function to access the internet via the VPC.
- Learn the configuration required for a Lambda function attached to a VPC to access the internet.
Prerequisites
- Navigating through the AWS Management Console.
- Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC).
- AWS Lambda.
Outline
Task 1: Testing the Lambda function
Task 2: Troubleshooting and remediating the issue
