Step 6: Assign Inter-Region Bandwidths

Scenarios

By default, the system allocates 10 kbit/s of bandwidth for testing network connectivity across regions. To ensure normal network communications, you need to assign inter-region bandwidths.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Hover on the upper left corner to display Service List and choose Networking > Cloud Connect.
  3. In the cloud connection list, click the name of the created cloud connection.
  4. Click Inter-Region Bandwidths.
  5. Click Assign Inter-Region Bandwidth and configure the parameters based on Table 1.
    Table 1 Parameter description

    Parameter

    Description

    Example Value

    Regions

    Specifies the two regions between which network communications are required.

    CN East-Shanghai1, CN North-Beijing4

    Bandwidth Package

    Specifies the bandwidth package you want to bind to the cloud connection.

    N/A

    Bandwidth

    Specifies the bandwidth you require for communications between the two regions, in Mbit/s.

    The sum of all inter-region bandwidths you assign based on the bandwidth package cannot exceed the bandwidth of the bandwidth package. Plan the bandwidth in advance.

    N/A
  6. Click OK.

    Now the VPCs in the two regions can communicate with each other, and on-premises data centers can access all the VPCs loaded to the cloud connection.

    The default security group rule denies all the inbound traffic. Ensure that security group rules in both directions are correctly configured for resources in the regions to ensure normal communications.
