Step 4 - Creating the Overlay Subnets within the VPC

Creating the Overlay Subnets within the VPC

Overlay subnets are subnets that are associated to the VPC. In this lab, you are required to create 4 overlay subnets as depicted in Lab 0 - Overview

  1. To create a VPC subnet, navigate to Network & Security – Virtual Private Clouds.

  2. Choose the VPC you created in the previous step.

  3. From the VPC navigation bar, choose Subnets.

    • Click Create Subnet. The information for the 4 subnets are as per below

        -   Subnet #1
            -   Name:   Web-Subnet
            -   Network IP address/ Prefix:     10.1.1.0/24
            -   Gateway IP Address:             10.1.1.1
            -   IP Pool:                        Starting IP address 10.1.1.50 , Ending IP address : 10.1.1.200

        -   Subnet #2
            -   Name:   App-Subnet 
            -   Network IP address/ Prefix:     20.1.1.0/24
            -   Gateway IP Address:             20.1.1.1
            -   IP Pool:                        Starting IP address 20.1.1.50 , Ending IP address : 20.1.1.200

        -   Subnet #3
            -   Name:   DB-Subnet 
            -   Network IP address/ Prefix:     30.1.1.0/24
            -   Gateway IP Address:             30.1.1.1
            -   IP Pool:                        Starting IP address 30.1.1.50 , Ending IP address : 30.1.1.200

        -   Subnet #4
            -   Name:   NFV-Subnet 
            -   Network IP address/ Prefix:     40.1.1.0/24
            -   Gateway IP Address:             40.1.1.1
            -   IP Pool:                        Starting IP address 40.1.1.50 , Ending IP address : 40.1.1.200

    After you create the first subnet, click on the create button, and repeat the steps for the other 3 subnets
