Amazon VPC? Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) enables you to launch Amazon resources into a virtual network that you've defined. This virtual network closely resembles a traditional network that you'd operate in your own data center, with the benefits of using the scalable infrastructure of Amazon. Features The following features help you configure a VPC to provide the connectivity that your applications need: Virtual private clouds (VPC) A VPC (p. 13) is a virtual network that closely resembles a traditional network that you'd operate in your own data center. After you create a VPC, you can add subnets. Subnets A subnet (p. 56) is a range of IP addresses in your VPC. A subnet must reside in a single Availability Zone. After you add subnets, you can deploy Amazon resources in your VPC. IP addressing You can assign IPv4 addresses and IPv6 addresses to your VPCs and subnets. You can also bring your public IPv4 and IPv6 GUA addresses to Amazon and allocate them to resources in your VPC, such as EC2 instances, NAT gateways, and Network Load Balancers. Routing Use route tables (p. 75) to determine where network traffic from your subnet or gateway is directed. Gateways and endpoints A gateway (p. 128) connects your VPC to another network. For example, use an internet gateway (p. 128) to connect your VPC to the internet. Use a VPC endpoint to connect to Amazon Web Services privately, without the use of an internet gateway or NAT device. Peering connections Use a VPC peering connection to route traffic between the resources in two VPCs. Traffic Mirroring Copy network traffic from network interfaces and send it to security and monitoring appliances for deep packet inspection. Transit gateways Use a transit gateway (p. 180), which acts as a central hub, to route traffic between your VPCs, VPN connections, and Amazon Direct Connect connections. VPC Flow Logs A flow log (p. 183) captures information about the IP traffic going to and from network interfaces in your VPC. VPN connections Connect your VPCs to your on-premises networks using Amazon Virtual Private Network (Amazon VPN) (p. 180). 1 Amazon Virtual Private Cloud User Guide Getting started with Amazon VPC Getting started with Amazon VPC Your Amazon Web Services account includes a default VPC (p. 25) in each Amazon Web Services Region. Your default VPCs are configured such that you can immediately start launching and connecting to EC2 instances. For more information, see Get started (p. 10). You can choose to create additional VPCs with the subnets, IP addresses, gateways and routing that you need. For more information, see the section called “Create a VPC” (p. 18). Working with Amazon VPC You can create and manage your VPCs using any of the following interfaces: • Amazon Web Services Management Console — Provides a web interface that you can use to access your VPCs. • Amazon Command Line Interface (Amazon CLI) — Provides commands for a broad set of Amazon services, including Amazon VPC, and is supported on Windows, Mac, and Linux. For more information, see Amazon Command Line Interface. • Amazon SDKs — Provides language-specific APIs and takes care of many of the connection details, such as calculating signatures, handling request retries, and error handling. For more information, see Amazon SDKs. • Query API — Provides low-level API actions that you call using HTTPS requests. Using the Query API is the most direct way to access Amazon VPC, but it requires that your application handle low-level details such as generating the hash to sign the request, and error handling. For more information, see Amazon VPC actions in the Amazon EC2 API Reference. Pricing for Amazon VPC There's no additional charge for using a VPC. There are charges for some VPC components, such as NAT gateways, IP Address Manager, traffic mirroring, Reachability Analyzer, and Network Access Analyzer. For more information, see Amazon VPC Pricing. 2 Amazon Virtual Private Cloud User Guide VPCs and subnets How Amazon VPC works Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) enables you to launch Amazon resources into a virtual network that you've defined. This virtual network closely resembles a traditional network that you'd operate in your own data center, with the benefits of using the scalable infrastructure of Amazon. Concepts • VPCs and subnets (p. 3) • Default and nondefault VPCs (p. 3) • IP addressing (p. 4) • Route tables (p. 7) • Access the internet (p. 7) • Access a corporate or home network (p. 8) • Connect VPCs and networks (p. 8) • Amazon private global network considerations (p. 8) VPCs and subnets A virtual private cloud (VPC) is a virtual network dedicated to your Amazon account. It is logically isolated from other virtual networks in the Amazon Cloud. You can specify an IP address range for the VPC, add subnets, add gateways, and associate security groups. A subnet is a range of IP addresses in your VPC. You launch Amazon resources, such as Amazon EC2 instances, into your subnets. You can connect a subnet to the internet, other VPCs, and your own data centers, and route traffic to and from your subnets using route tables. Learn more • VPC basics (p. 13) • Subnet basics (p. 56) • Internetwork traffic privacy in Amazon VPC (p. 227) • IP addressing (p. 4) Default and nondefault VPCs If your account was created after 2013-12-04, it comes with a default VPC in each Region. A default VPC is configured and ready for you to use. For example, it has a default subnet in each Availability Zone in the Region, an attached internet gateway, a route in the main route table that sends all traffic to the internet gateway, and DNS settings that automatically assign public DNS hostnames to instances with public IP addresses and enable DNS resolution through the Amazon-provided DNS server (see DNS attributes in your VPC (p. 39)). Therefore, an EC2 instance that is launched in a default subnet automatically has access to the internet. If you have a default VPC in a Region and you don't specify a subnet when you launch an EC2 instance into that Region, we choose one of the default subnets and launch the instance into that subnet. You can also create your own VPC, and configure it as you need. This is known as a nondefault VPC. Subnets that you create in your nondefault VPC and additional subnets that you create in your default VPC are called nondefault subnets. 3
