Operation

Scenario

Typical networking shows the typical networking for connecting a Huawei Cloud VPN gateway to a Tencent Cloud VPN gateway using static routes.

Figure 1 Typical networking diagram

In this scenario, the Tencent Cloud VPN gateway supports only the single-IP address solution. The active-active mode is recommended for the Huawei Cloud VPN gateway. Create a VPN connection between the active EIP, active EIP2, and the IP address of the Tencent Cloud VPN gateway.
