VPC Network

VPC (Virtual Private Cloud) Network is an architecture virtual version of physical network that implemented in Cloudeka cloud environment. A VPC Network ensures secure traffic between any resource like Instance, Kubernetes clusters, database clusters, and load balancers. Any resource you create within a VPC can communicate securely over their private IP Address.

Create VPC Network

This menu explains how to create a VPC Network. VPC Network is also the basis for creating a Virtual Machine, you must create a VPC Network before creating a Virtual Machine.

  • Go to Network page


Network Page


  • Click Create VPC button.

  • Select the Wizard Simple tab and Fill in the Create VPC Network form.


Network Page - Create VPC


Create VPC Network Form


Column Description
Name Name of VPC Network
Description Description of VPC Network
Billing Type - PPU
- Fixed
IP Address Enter Private IP Address also the subnetmask, The Internet Assigned Number Authority (IANA) has assigned several address ranges to be used by private networks. Address ranges to be use by private network are:

- Class A: 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
- Class B: 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255
- Class C: 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255

An IP address within these ranges is therefore considered non-routable, as it is not unique. Any private network that needs to use IP addresses internally can use any address within these ranges without any coordination with IANA or an Internet registry. Addresses within this private address space are only unique within a given private network.
VPC Type There are two types available on the VPC:
a.Simple support services that need to be connected to the internet and have access to resources outside the VPC.
b.Isolated is used to fully isolate resources and data from the internet or other resources outside the VPC.
VPC type difference is the simple type you can add Floating IP to the network configuration.
