Public IP outside

50
Q

What happens when you assign an elastic IP

A

It removes the other public IP

51
Q

How can you do something sneaky with MAC-based licensing

A

Use secondary ENI MAC address and move it between instances

52
Q

Does an instance lose its public IPv4 address when it stops and start

A

Yes, unless it has an elastic public IP

53
Q

What does Requester pays do

Adjust manually min, max and desired

61
Q

What is simple scaling

A

Set alarm and do action based on it

62
Q

WHat is step scaling

A

Scale based on step adjustments
Eg set CPU amounts in steps, say how many CPUs to add
