Setting Up Environments

To access DCS instances through a VPC, create a VPC and configure security groups and subnets for it before using DCS.

A VPC provides an isolated, user-configurable, and user-manageable virtual network environment for DCS. Using VPCs enhances resource security and simplifies network deployment.

Once you have created a VPC, you can use it for all DCS instances you subsequently create.

Procedure

1. Log in to the management console.

2. Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select a region and a project.

3. Click Service List, and choose Network > Virtual Private Cloud to launch the VPC console.

4. On the Dashboard page, click Create VPC.

5. Create a VPC as prompted, retaining the default values unless otherwise required. For more information on how to create a VPC, see the Virtual Private Cloud User Guide.

   After a VPC is created, a subnet is also created in the subnet. If the VPC needs more subnets, go to 6 <en-us_topic_0077665192__li10954228154518>. Otherwise, go to 7 <en-us_topic_0077665192__li1940024225812>.

6. In the navigation pane, choose Virtual Private Cloud. On the Virtual Private Cloud page, click the name of the VPC in which you intend to create a subnet. On the Subnets tab page, click Create Subnet.

   Create a subnet as guided by the VPC console, retaining the default values of the subnet parameters unless otherwise required.

   For more information on how to create a subnet, see the Virtual Private Cloud User Guide.

7. In the navigation pane, choose Security Group. On the Security Group page, click Create Security Group.

   Create a security group for the VPC, retaining the default values of the security group parameters unless otherwise required.

   For more information on how to create a security group, see the Virtual Private Cloud User Guide.
