Procedure

Prerequisites

  • Cloud side
    • A VPC has been created. For details about how to create a VPC, see the Virtual Private Cloud User Guide.
    • Security group rules have been configured for the VPC, and ECSs can communicate with other devices on the cloud. For details about how to configure security group rules, see the Virtual Private Cloud User Guide.
  • Data center side
    • IPsec has been configured on the VPN devices in the two on-premises data centers.
    • The remote subnets of the VPN device in on-premises data center 1 must contain the local subnet of the VPC and the subnet to be interconnected in on-premises data center 2. The remote subnets of the VPN device in on-premises data center 2 must contain the local subnet of the VPC and the subnet to be interconnected in on-premises data center 1.
