Chapter VI Deka Flexi: Network
This menu is used to create VPC Network, and assign floating IP.
6.1 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.
6.1.1 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

- Click Create VPC button.

- Fill in the form Create VPC Network.

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. |
- Then, click Create VPC Network

6.1.3 Delete VPC Network
Before you delete a VPC Network, you need to make sure there are no other instances or services connected to the VPC Network.
- On the Network page, click the Delete button.

6.2 Floating IP
Floating IP is a public, static IP Address for instances that provide access from an external network to the instance without public network interface.
6.2.1 Assign Floating IP
If your instance require external IP address for external access, you can assign Floating IP by following these steps:
- On the Network page select the Floating IP tab.

- In Floating IP Type, there are two Floating IP Types, namely Reserved and Non Reserved. In the Non-Reserved type when you Reassign Instance then the IP used will be deleted from the list in the Floating IP, while in the Reserved type if you Reassign Instance then the IP used will remain on the list in Floating IP so you can use the IP for other instances of your project.

6.2.2 Unassign Floating IP
If you want to unassign or remove Floating IP of your instance, please follow these steps. Note: if you unassign Floating IP from your instance, so your instance doesn’t have external access anymore. However, you can reassign the Floating IP whenever you want.
- If you are already on the Network page and on the Floating IP tab, select the Floating IP in Action column that you want to unassign from your instance. Click More, then select Unassign.

- If the Floating IP has been successfully unassigned, a pop up will appear “Floating IP has been successfully unassigned!”

6.2.3 Delete Floating IP
Before you delete floating IP, you need to unassign the Floating IP first. You cannot delete it if the Floating IP still in use.
- In the Action column, choose Floating IP that you want to delete. click More, then select Delete.
