Data

VPC

Subnet that needs to access the on-premises data center
  • 192.168.0.0/24
  • 192.168.1.0/24

VPN gateway

Interconnection subnet

This subnet is used for communication between the VPN gateway and VPC. Ensure that the selected interconnection subnet has four or more assignable IP addresses.

192.168.2.0/24

HA mode

Active/Standby

EIP

EIPs are automatically generated when you buy them. By default, a VPN gateway uses two EIPs. In this example, the EIPs are as follows:

  • Active EIP: 3.3.3.3
  • Standby EIP: 4.4.4.4

VPN connection

Tunnel interface address

This address is used by a VPN gateway to establish an IPsec tunnel with a customer gateway. At the two ends of the IPsec tunnel, the configured local and remote tunnel interface addresses must be reversed.

  • VPN connection 1: 169.254.70.1/30
  • VPN connection 2: 169.254.71.1/30

On-premises data center

Subnet that needs to access the VPC

172.16.0.0/16

Customer gateway

Public IP address

This public IP address is assigned by a carrier. In this example, the public IP address is:

  • 1.1.1.1
  • 2.2.2.2

Tunnel interface address
  • VPN connection 1: 169.254.70.2/30
  • VPN connection 2: 169.254.71.2/30
