To make it easier to set up a Virtual Cloud Network (VCN) and connect to it, the Console has the following wizards that walk you through network setup.
Create a VCN with Internet Connectivity
What this wizard does:
Checks for resource availability. To create any new resource the service limit for that resource must not already have been reached. After the service limit for a resource type has been reached, you can either remove unused resources of that type or request a service limit increase.
Creates a VCN. This wizard can support the
creation of a VCN with IPv6 addresses. For more information, see IPv6 Addresses.
Creates a regional public subnet with routing to the internet gateway. Instances in a public subnet might optionally have public IP addresses.
Creates a regional private subnet with routing to the NAT gateway and service gateway (and therefore the Oracle Services Network). Instances in a private subnet can't have public IP addresses.
Sets up basic security list rules for the two subnets, including SSH access.
This wizard supports the creation of a VCN with IPv6 addresses. IPv6 addressing is
supported for all commercial and government regions. For more information, see
IPv6 Addresses.
To access this wizard from the Networking Overview page:
Open the navigation menu, select Networking, and then select Overview.
In the Create a VCN with internet connectivity section, select Start VCN wizard.
To access this wizard from the Virtual cloud networks list page:
Open the navigation menu , select Networking, and then select Virtual cloud networks.
On the Virtual cloud networks list page, perform one of the following actions depending on the option that you see:
Select the Actions button, and then select Start VCN Wizard.
Select Start VCN Wizard.
Select Create VCN with Internet Connectivity, and then select Start VCN Wizard.
Add Internet Connectivity and Site-to-Site VPN to a VCN 🔗
What this wizard does:
Checks for resource availability. To create any new resource the service limit for that resource must not already have been reached. After the service limit for a resource type has been reached, you can either remove unused resources of that type or request a service limit increase.
Creates a regional public subnet with access to the internet gateway. Instances in a public subnet can optionally have public IP addresses.
Sets up basic security list rules for the subnet, including SSH access.
Sets up all the Networking service resources required for a Site-to-Site VPN between the VCN and an on-premises network. The wizard can optionally have the IPSec encrypted traffic use an existing FastConnect link between the VCN and an on-premises network. See IPSec over FastConnect for details.
Note
For the IPSec connection to work, a network engineer must also configure the customer-premises equipment (CPE) in the edge network.
