Mapping VPC Peering in the Network Designer

Visualizing cloud-to-cloud connections with high fidelity for cross-region networking.

Mapping VPC Peering

In complex cloud environments, VPC peering allows resources in different virtual networks to communicate. Visualizing these links is vital for security audits.

Why Peer Visibility Matters

Without a clear map, you might accidentally route traffic through an expensive transit gateway or leave a subnet exposed to the wrong peer.

How-To: Peer in the Designer

Step 1: Place two "Cloud" icons representing your VPCs.
Step 2: Use the "Dashed Link" connector to represent the peering connection.
Step 3: Use text boxes to label the Peering ID and CIDR routes allowed.
