Answers
D.
Create CNAME records for www, ftp, and mail and point those to the A record already provided to the instance by AWS.
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

Explanation:

There is no ALIAS record for an EC2 instance, CNAME records pointed to the A record provided by AWS won't work because if the IP changes, the A record will change also. A PTR record is not appropriate here and cannot point to more than one record. Having three CNAME records and one A record will result in only having to change the A record if the IP changes.
