VPC Peering Connection by Cloud Architect (i.e Girish Babu)


This article is primarily intended for AWS Batch 43. For any queries, feel free to contact me at 9036367291.




I'm considering 2 AWS Regions (Virginia & Ohio) for VPC Peering



Step1: Create VPC (10.0.0.0/16) on Virginia (VPC Name: VirginiaVPC)



Step2: Select Virginia VPC --> Goto actions and enable DNS hostnames and save changes.











Step3: Create Public Subnet (10.0.1.0/24) on Virginia VPC

Step4: Select Public Subnet and Ensure to assign Public IP for this Public Subnet



Step5: Create IG and attach it the Virginia VPC.


Step6: Create a Route Table --> Goto to Routes --> edit the routes --> Enter 0.0.0.0/0 and select IG under next drop down.

 


Step7: Goto the Route table --> go to the subnet associations --> add the subnet, click on save. 




Step8: Launch EC2 instances in Virginia region and select the Public subnet. 



Step9: Create new SG with the name as Virginia_SG and add inbound rules (ICMP Port, set IP as 10.1.0.0/16) and save the SG. 








Please create another VPC & Launch Instance in Ohio region 

by following above steps from Step1 to Step9: 


Note: VPC Name (OhioVPC - 10.1.0.0/16) & Subnet IP (10.1.0.0/24)

Please repeat above steps (from 1 to 9) in Ohio Region. 


Step10: While launching EC2 instance in Ohio Region, Create new SG with the name as Ohio_SG and add inbound rules (ICMP Port, set IP as 10.0.0.0/16) and save the SG. 






Step11: Go to the Virginia region VPC services in the AWS console --> click on Peering connections --> Create a peering, select receiver and accepter and add the Ohio region VPC ID.

 



Step12: Navigate to the Ohio region VPC peering, click on actions, accept the peering



Step13: Goto Virginia RT --> Goto to Routes --> edit the routes --> Enter 10.1.0.0/16 and select target as Peering connection under next drop down.






 







Step14: Do the same in Ohio region as well, Goto Ohio RT --> Goto to Routes --> edit the routes --> Enter 10.0.0.0/16 and select target as Peering connection under next drop down. 





That's it...Wowsa!!!!!!

VPC peering is done. Now it's time to do Peering testing. 


Step15: Connect to your Virginia EC2 instance and Ping IP address of Ohio EC2 

instance. 

Step16: Connect to your Ohio EC2 instance and Ping IP address of Virginia EC2 instance.



Note: If it's Windows Instance -- Then RDP it to and Ping another Peered Instance IP from CMD

Below screenshot is for you're kind reference (This is Linux Instance). 



Happy Learning guys....!!!! Cheers...!!!
