When someone reports an EC2 connectivity failure, what do you do? Open your Amazon VPC Console, launch an SSH session, and start typing CLI commands in search of clues.
Common root causes include problems related to:
Route table updates
Phantom network ACLs
Security policies
Missing BGP routes
Overfilling route tables or summarization mistakes
Moreover, in many cases, networking is not an issue, but valuable time is lost eliminating the network as a cause before you can progress. Unfortunately, AWS does not natively provide the visibility and troubleshooting features needed by CloudOps and DevOps teams to identify and resolve problems quickly.
