Policy-based routes let you specify a next hop based on the packet’s protocol and source IP address in addition to the destination IP address. In this case, traffic is redirected to an internal passthrough Network Load Balancer which enables the insertion of appliances such as firewalls into the path of network traffic as policy-based routes…

Every VPC network uses a scalable, distributed virtual routing mechanism. There is no physical device that’s assigned to the network.

The VPN connection encrypts traffic traveling between the networks, with one VPN gateway handling encryption and the other handling decryption. This process protects your data during transmission. You can also connect two VPC networks together by…

In certain scenarios, simulating a network environment requires configuring a VM to function as a router.
