What Is an Enterprise Router?
- You can attach VPCs to enterprise routers to allow VPCs in different regions to communicate through enterprise routers.
- You can add two or more enterprise routers to a central network provided by Cloud Connect as attachments to allow VPCs in different regions to communicate through enterprise routers and the central network.
- You can combine Direct Connect or Virtual Private Network (VPN) with Enterprise Router to enable on-premises data centers to access the cloud. For details, see Using Enterprise Router and Direct Connect (Virtual Gateway) to Connect an On-Premises Data Center to the Cloud andUsing Enterprise Router and Direct Connect (Global DC Gateway) to Connect an On-Premises Data Center to the Cloud.
- Use Cloud Firewall (CFW) to protect traffic between VPCs. CFW can detect and defend against intrusions in real time, analyze traffic and visualize results, audit logs, and trace traffic sources. For details, see Configuring CFW for Enterprise Router.

Benefits of Using Enterprise Routers |
---|---|---|---|
Communications among VPCs in the same region |
|
|
|
Communications between VPCs in different regions |
Connect all VPCs using Cloud Connect. |
You only need to add the enterprise router in each region to a central network as attachments. |
|
Communications between an on-premises data center and VPCs |
Establish Direct Connect or VPN connections between each VPC and the data center. |
Attach the Direct Connect or VPN connection to the enterprise router. These VPCs can then share the connection. |

The comparison shows that the network with enterprise routers is simpler and highly scalable and is also easier to maintain.
