In the next step, you can configure security groups for your VPC. You can specify the sources and destinations, protocols, and ports to allow or deny traffic.

Step 5: Review and create

Finally, review the settings you have provided and click on the "Create" button to start the VPC creation process.

Once the VPC is created, you can launch an Alibaba Cloud Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instance and connect it to the VPC. You can do this by selecting the VPC and subnet in the ECS launch wizard.

Step 7: Manage the VPC

You can use the Alibaba Cloud Console to manage your VPC and its components, such as subnets, security groups, and routes. You can also use the Alibaba Cloud CLI to automate VPC management tasks.

In conclusion, creating a virtual network on Alibaba Cloud is a simple process that can be completed in just a few steps. With a virtual network, you can securely connect ECS instances, databases, and other Alibaba Cloud resources in a virtual network. This allows you to better control and manage network traffic, improve security, and achieve high availability and disaster recovery.

Welcome to itscloudhub!! In the previous post, we were looked how to install AWS SSM Agent on Linux Distribution. In this blog post, we will discuss how to install AWS SSM Agent on Windows machine. https://www.itscloudhub.com/2022/03/how-to-install-aws-system-manager-ssm.html AWS Systems Manager Agent (SSM Agent) is preinstalled, by default, on the following Amazon Machine Images (AMIs): 1. Windows Server 2008-2012 R2 AMIs published in November 2016 or later 2. Windows Server 2016, 2019, and 2022 If your managed instance is a Windows Server 2008-2012 R2 instance created before November 2016, then EC2Config processes Systems Manager requests on your instance. We recommend that you upgrade your existing instances to use the latest version of EC2Config . By using the latest EC2Config installer, you install SSM Agent side-by-side with EC2Config. This side-by-side version of SSM Agent is compatible with your instances created from earlier Windows Server AMIs and allows you to use SSM fe...
