Create a client gateway
You can create a client gateway in your corporate network.
This action identifies an existing resource in your corporate network to use as a client gateway. You can then set up a VPN (Virtual Private Network) connection between this client gateway and a virtual gateway.
Permissions
This action requires the following IAM (Identity and Access Management) permissions:
- connectivity.bridge.create
Before you begin: Create a resource to use as a client gateway.
- Console
- API
- Terraform
-
In the Client Gateways dashboard, click Create a Client Gateway. The "Create a Client Gateway" dialog box appears.
-
In the "BGP ASN" field, type the appropriate autonomous system number (ASN - Autonomous System Number) for your client gateway.
The ASN must be between 1 and 4294967295. If you do not have an ASN, you can choose one between 64512 and 65534, or between 4200000000 and 4294967294.
- In the "Public IP" field, type the static public IP (Internet Protocol) of the resource that you want to use as a client gateway.
IPv6 addresses are not supported. You must use an IPv4 address.
- Click Create a Client Gateway. The client gateway is created.
The POST /connectivity/spaces/{spaceId}/clientGateways command creates a client gateway.
This action records information to identify the client gateway that you have deployed in your network.
To establish a tunnel with the client gateway, you must provide the communication protocol type, the fixed public IP address of the gateway, and an autonomous system number (ASN).
