AWS Certified Advanced Networking –

Specialty (ANS-C00) Exam Guide

Introduction
The AWS Certified Advanced Networking – Specialty (ANS-C00) is intended for individuals who perform complex
networking tasks. This examination validates advanced technical skills and experience in designing and
implementing AWS and hybrid IT network architectures at scale.
It validates an examinee’s ability to:
 Design, develop, and deploy cloud-based solutions using AWS
 Implement core AWS services according to basic architectural best practices
 Design and maintain network architecture for all AWS services
 Leverage tools to automate AWS networking tasks

Recommended AWS Knowledge


 Professional experience using AWS technology
 AWS Security best practices
 AWS storage options and their underlying consistency models
 AWS networking nuances and how they relate to the integration of AWS services

Recommended General IT Knowledge


 Advanced networking architectures and interconnectivity options (e.g., IP VPN, MPLS/VPLS)
 Networking technologies within the OSI model, and how they affect implementation decisions
 Development of automation scripts and tools
o Routing architectures (including static and dynamic)
o Multi-region solutions for a global enterprise
o Highly available connectivity solutions (e.g., DX, VPN)
 CIDR and sub-netting (IPv4 and IPv6)
 IPv6 transition challenges
 Generic solutions for network security features, including WAF, IDS, IPS, DDoS protection, and Economic
Denial of Service/Sustainability (EDoS).

Exam Preparation
These training courses and materials may be helpful for examination preparation:
 AWS Cloud Computing Whitepapers (aws.amazon.com/whitepapers)
 AWS Documentation (aws.amazon.com/documentation)

Exam Content
Response Types
There are two types of questions on the examination:
 Multiple-choice: Has one correct response and three or four incorrect responses (distractors).
 Multiple-response: Has two or more correct responses out of five or more options.

Version 1.2 ANS-C00 1|P a g e


Select one or more responses that best complete the statement or answer the question. Distractors, or incorrect
answers, are response options that an examinee with incomplete knowledge or skill would likely choose. However,
they are generally plausible responses that fit in the content area defined by the test objective.
Unanswered questions are scored as incorrect; there is no penalty for guessing.

Unscored Content
Your examination may include unscored items that are placed on the test to gather statistical information. These
items are not identified on the form and do not affect your score.

Exam Results
The AWS Certified Advanced Networking – Specialty (ANS-C00) is a pass or fail exam. The examination is scored
against a minimum standard established by AWS professionals who are guided by certification industry best
practices and guidelines.
Your score report contains a table of classifications of your performance at each section level. This information is
designed to provide general feedback concerning your examination performance. The examination uses a
compensatory scoring model, which means that you do not need to “pass” the individual sections, only the overall
examination. Each section of the examination has a specific weighting, so some sections have more questions than
others. The table contains general information, highlighting your strengths and weaknesses. Exercise caution when
interpreting section-level feedback.
