Which CIDR Blocks Are Available for the VPC Service?

The following table lists the private CIDR blocks that you can specify when creating a VPC. Consider the following when selecting a VPC CIDR block:
  • Number of IP addresses: Reserve sufficient IP addresses in case of business growth.
  • IP address range: Avoid IP address conflicts if you need to connect a VPC to an on-premises data center or connect two VPCs.
Table 1 lists the supported VPC CIDR blocks.
