Configuring and Deploying VPCs with Multiple Subnets (Includes Labs)

Languages Available: 中文（简体)

This course covers the fundamentals of configuring and deploying a virtual private cloud (VPC) with multiple subnets across two Availability Zones. The course also covers best practices and common use scenarios for a variety of basic network architectures built with Amazon VPC.

• Course Level: Intermediate    
• Duration: 2 Hours

Course objectives

In this course, you will learn to:     

• Deploy and configure VPCs, subnets, internet gateways, and route tables    
• Design, deploy, and configure a single-tier VPC with access via the internet    
• Secure your VPC infrastructure using security groups and network access control lists (network ACLs)    
• Expand a single-tier VPC across multiple Availability Zones to provide greater availability    
• Design, deploy, and configure a multi-tier VPC that enables you to reduce or eliminate the public availability of critical resources

Intended audience

This course is intended for:    

• Anyone who wants to know how to use Amazon VPC at a fundamental level

Prerequisites

We recommend that attendees of this course have:    

• A basic understanding of business networking, including routing technology, IP addressing, and network security, and a cursory understanding of Amazon VPC
