What Is a Remote Gateway and Remote Subnet in a VPN Connection?

A VPN connection is created on the cloud. As such, a subnet of a VPC is a local subnet, and a VPN gateway created on the cloud is a local gateway. The subnet and gateway in an on-premises data center connected to the VPC are a remote subnet and a remote gateway, respectively.

A remote gateway's IP address is a public IP address.
