VPC Endpoint (VPCEP) Connection

Prerequisites

You have created at least one staking node and enabled VPC Endpoint (VPCEP) for it.

Precautions

• The staking node, VPC endpoint, and backend resources must be in the same region, for example, AP-Singapore.
• The VPC endpoint and backend resources must be in the same Virtual Private Cloud (VPC).

Procedure

1. Obtain the VPC endpoint service name.
   1. Log in to the NES console.
   2. Choose Dedicated > Network Management.
   3. Click a node ID and obtain the VPC Endpoint on the node details page.

      

2. Buy a VPC endpoint.
   1. Log in to the VPC Endpoint console.
   2. Choose VPC Endpoint > VPC Endpoints.
   3. Click Buy VPC Endpoint and configure parameters. For details, see Buying a VPC Endpoint.
      

      

      Set Service Category to Find a service by name. Then, paste the obtained VPC endpoint service name in VPC Endpoint Service Name.

   4. Click Next, confirm parameters, and submit the order.
   5. On the VPC Endpoints page, click the ID of the purchased VPC endpoint, and obtain its Private Domain Name.

      

3. Access the staking node using its port number and the private domain name of the VPC endpoint.

   gRPC endpoint: Private network domain name:Port number

   HTTP endpoint: Private network domain name:Port number

   

   Obtain the port numbers on the NES console. They are the values of gRPC Endpoint (for Validators) and HTTP Endpoint (for Validators) on the node details page.
