IPSEC VPN Tunnels

Q. Why 2 tunnels?

A. The AWS VPN Gateway product provides 2 tunnels by default for resilience. Each terminates in a different availability zone.

IPSEC VPN Tunnels + Direct Connect

Q. Why /24 or /25?

A. This is to host load balancers and proxies within the dedicated customer Account/VPC. Internally we will allocate a /27 per availability zone for each of the 3 availability zones.

Direct Connect

Q. Does the connection have to be dedicated?

A. No, a VLAN can be added to an existing layer 2 fabric provider, such as Equinix Fabric.

Q. How much bandwidth for hosted connections?

A. 50Mbps is fine.
