Zorluk: OrtaInfrastructure Migration with AWS Application Migration Service (MGN)

A digital media broadcasting company is migrating its on-premises video rendering workload consisting of 4040 servers to AWS using AWS Application Migration Service (MGN). The hybrid environment is connected via a dedicated 1 Gbps1\text{ Gbps} AWS Direct Connect connection to an AWS Transit Gateway, which routes traffic to a dedicated staging VPC and a target production VPC. The migration must use a private replication channel over the Direct Connect connection. The solutions architect configures AWS MGN VPC interface endpoints in the staging VPC and associates them with the appropriate Route 53 Private Hosted Zone. Although the AWS Replication Agent is successfully installed on all source servers, the replication status remains stuck in the 'Initiating' state, and the console reports a connection timeout to the replication servers. Which action should the solutions architect take to resolve this replication connection failure?

  1. Ensure that the security group of the replication servers in the staging VPC allows inbound traffic on TCP port 1500 from the on-premises subnet, and verify that the on-premises network allows outbound traffic on TCP port 1500 to the staging area subnets.Cevap
  2. B
    Reconfigure the Transit Gateway by replacing it with a Direct Connect gateway connected directly to the staging and production VPCs, enabling transitive routing of replication traffic between the staging subnets and the on-premises network.
  3. C
    Associate the Route 53 Private Hosted Zone created for the MGN interface endpoints with the Transit Gateway's VPC attachment and configure a Route 53 Resolver outbound endpoint to forward queries to the on-premises DNS servers.
  4. D
    Modify the staging VPC route tables to direct all replication traffic to a single NAT Gateway deployed in a public subnet of the staging VPC, ensuring the agent can reach the public IP addresses of the replication servers.

Cevap

Ensure that the security group of the replication servers in the staging VPC allows inbound traffic on TCP port 1500 from the on-premises subnet, and verify that the on-premises network allows outbound traffic on TCP port 1500 to the staging area subnets.
The correct action is to ensure that the security group of the replication servers in the staging VPC allows inbound traffic on TCP port 1500 from the on-premises subnet, and that the on-premises network allows outbound traffic on TCP port 1500 to the staging area subnets. AWS Application Migration Service (MGN) uses TCP port 1500 for replication data transmission from the source server to the replication servers launched in the staging VPC. While control plane traffic (such as registration and commands) uses TCP port 443, data plane replication requires TCP port 1500. If this port is blocked, the replication will fail to initialize and time out.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the migration status and symptoms.
The replication agent is successfully installed, which indicates that the control plane connection (TCP port 443) via the interface endpoints is working, but the data replication channel is failing to connect.
Identifying that the control plane functions but the data plane is blocked isolates the problem to the data replication port.
2
Identify the ports required by AWS Application Migration Service (MGN) for data replication.
The AWS replication agent sends replicated blocks to the staging area replication servers (which are lightweight EC2 instances launched by MGN) using TCP port 1500.
Understanding the network protocol requirements for MGN is critical for troubleshooting connectivity issues.
3
Verify and adjust the security group and firewall configurations.
Ensure that the security group attached to the replication servers in the staging VPC allows inbound traffic on TCP port 1500 from the on-premises source subnets, and that the on-premises firewall allows outbound traffic on TCP port 1500 to the staging subnets.
This establishes the bi-directional path for replication traffic over the private Direct Connect link.

AWS MGN private replication over Direct Connect requires TCP port 1500 to be open between source agents and staging replication servers.
