Route 53 Private Hosted Zone Tutorial | Cloud Networking Lab Series #3Lab 3 CNEL by ANUJA

In this lab, we build a private DNS environment inside AWS and verify that a custom hostname resolves correctly to an EC2 instance's private IP — entirely within your VPC, with no public exposure. 🔹 What you'll learn: Creating a Route 53 Private Hosted Zone Associating the hosted zone with your VPC Adding an A record for a custom hostname (e.g. app.internal) Launching an EC2 instance and confirming DNS resolution to its private IP Testing resolution using nslookup / dig from within the VPC This is Lab 03 in the Cloud Networking Lab Series, where we explore core networking concepts across AWS, Azure, and GCP. 📌 Previous labs: Lab 01 – Design a Virtual Network with Public & Private Subnets Lab 02 – Routing & NAT for Controlled Internet Access ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 Introduction (add your own timestamps once edited) #AWS #CloudNetworking #Route53 #PrivateDNS #EC2 #CloudComputing #DevOps #AWSTutorial
