Can I use this for high-availability networking setups?

Absolutely. The skill covers high-availability patterns such as dual VPN tunnels, active-active configurations, and equal-cost multi-path (ECMP) routing.

How does it handle security for hybrid connections?

It provides a 10-point security checklist including IPSec encryption, PrivateLink usage, network ACLs, and monitoring with VPC Flow Logs.

What routing protocols are covered?

The skill focuses on BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) for dynamic routing and provides specific AS number configurations and advertisement strategies for various clouds.

Does it include infrastructure-as-code examples?

Yes, it includes practical Terraform (HCL) snippets for configuring VPN gateways, customer gateways, and virtual network gateways across different platforms.

Which cloud providers are supported by this skill?

This skill provides configuration guidance and patterns for major providers including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
