When launching an instance in a VPC via the console, there are two attributes that need to be configured to ensure that the instance can receive a DNS hostname and that DNS resolution is possible via Amazon DNS.
A. Enable DNS resolution: This option allows Amazon-provided DNS server to resolve public DNS hostnames to IP addresses for your VPC. You can enable this option by navigating to the VPC Dashboard, selecting the VPC, and then choosing the "Actions" button and selecting "Edit DNS Resolution". Then, choose the option "Yes" and save the changes.
C. Enable DNS hostnames: This option allows instances launched in your VPC to receive a DNS hostname. You can enable this option by navigating to the VPC Dashboard, selecting the VPC, and then choosing the "Actions" button and selecting "Edit DNS Hostnames". Then, choose the option "Yes" and save the changes.
B. Set DNS hostnames to true and D. Set DNS resolution to true are not valid options. The correct attribute names are "enable DNS resolution" and "enable DNS hostnames" and the values should be set to "Yes" to enable them.
