Create Cross Connect

Follow these steps to create a Cross Connect connection:

Step 1: Successfully log in to VNG Cloud, and on the Console screen, navigate to the vNetwork service;

Step 2: In the left-hand menu of the vNetwork interface, select the Cross Connect section;

Step 3: The screen will navigate to the Cross Connect List page;

Step 4: On the Cross Connect list screen, click 'Create a Cross Connect';

Step 5: On the 'Create a Cross Connect' screen, fill in the setup information as follows:

  • Cross Connect Name: Enter the name of the Cross Connect being created;

  • Description: (optional) Enter a description for the Cross Connect being created;

  • Cross Connect Configuration: Select the Requester (default according to the configured region) and Accepter as the two regions that need to communicate with each other;

  • Bandwidth Configuration: Select the appropriate bandwidth package according to your needs.

Step 6: On the right side of the screen, review the package summary and bandwidth costs to create the Cross Connect, then click 'Create' to confirm and proceed with payment;

Step 7: After successful payment, the system will process the connection for the newly created Cross Connect.

Note:

  • On the Cross Connect list screen, you can see the newly created Cross Connect with the status 'Provisioning' (which means the system is establishing the connection).

  • During the setup process for this Cross Connect, the system requires time to authenticate between the two regions, so it may take up to 20 minutes to complete. Once the system finishes processing, the status will automatically change to 'Active.'

  • At this point, the user can proceed to create a VPC connection between the two regions.
