VPC Network

What is a VPC Network?​

A Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is a logically isolated virtual networking environment that allows you to launch, manage, and secure cloud resources. With a VPC, you have granular control over your networking infrastructure, including:

  • Custom IP address ranges
  • Subnet configurations
  • Route tables
  • Gateways and NATs

VPCs are ideal for securely managing cloud workloads while maintaining flexibility and scalability.

Creating a VPC Network​

To create a VPC Network on the Webberstop Cloud Portal, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to the Cloud Portal.

  2. From the side navigation panel, click on Networks.

  3. In the top bar, navigate to the VPC Network tab.

  4. Click the ➕ (plus) icon on the right to launch the VPC Network creation wizard.

  5. Select the Project under which this VPC Network will be created.
    Projects help organize cloud resources and manage access rights for teams.

  6. Choose a Datacenter Location
    The selected region will host your VPC.
    Note: Network plans may vary based on the datacenter.

  7. Define the CIDR Block
    Enter the CIDR notation to allocate the IP address range for your VPC (e.g., 10.0.0.0/16).

  8. Choose a Network Plan
    Select from the available network plans offered for the chosen datacenter. These plans may differ in terms of features, bandwidth, or cost.

  9. Set the VPC Name and Description
    Provide a meaningful name and description to easily identify your VPC later.

  10. Review your configuration, then click Review & Deploy to create the VPC Network.

Deleting a VPC Network​

To remove a VPC Network:

  1. Navigate to Networks from the left-hand side menu of the dashboard.

  2. Locate the VPC Network you wish to delete.

  3. Click on the 🗑️ trash icon associated with that network.

  4. A confirmation prompt will appear. You will be required to:

    • Provide a Reason for Deletion
    • Add a brief Description
    • Specify the Type of Deletion (e.g., immediate, scheduled)

Once confirmed, the VPC Network will be queued for deletion based on your selected parameters.
