Testing VPC Connectivity

Before we begin, I’d like you to reflect on the universe — its intricate design and how you fit within it. How do you perceive yourself in this vast geoid? What makes you unique? Is life a continuous journey, filled with building, destroying, and reconstructing? It’s never a straight path, as we might expect. I often seek guidance from the universe on how to navigate daily life. Most times, it’s silent, like an unanswered prayer, much like not hearing back from a crush after getting her number through a friend.

However, sometimes the call is picked up, and everything conspires to push you toward your destiny. I pray that you find yourself in whatever journey you’re on.

Testing VPC Connectivity in AWS

In this guide, we’ll focus on testing connectivity between servers in AWS. So far, we’ve covered the following topics:

- Networks in AWS
- VPC Traffic Flow and Security
- Creating a Private Subnet
- Launching VPC Resources

These topics build on each other, so before proceeding with this article, please ensure your resources are set up using the previous guides.

What We’ll Cover Today:

  1. Connecting to your Public Server from the AWS Management Console
  2. Testing connectivity between your EC2 instances
  3. Verifying VPC connectivity with the internet
