✌️How to Create a Subnet?
Overview
A subnet is a unique CIDR block with a range of IP addresses in a VPC. All resources in a VPC must be deployed on subnets.
By default, all instances in different subnets of the same VPC can communicate with each other. If you have a VPC with two subnets in it, they can communicate with each other by default.
After a subnet is created, its CIDR block cannot be modified. Subnets in the same VPC cannot overlap.
When creating a GPU VM, an active Subnet in the VPC is required. The system will automatically assign a Private IP from that subnet to the new virtual machine.
Step-by-Step
In the left-side menu, go to Networking → Subnets, then click Create Subnet.
Enter a name for your subnet in the Name field.
Select the type of subnet. We currently support two types:
Routed: The subnet is routed to the internet via a NAT gateway.
Isolated: The subnet has no internet routing.
Specify the IP range (subnet) your network will use, in CIDR notation (e.g. 172.30.65.0/24) using Network Address (CIDR).
Specify the IP address of the default gateway within your subnet using Gateway IP. This is usually the first usable IP (e.g. 172.30.65.1).
Define a Static IP Pool — a specific range of IPs reserved for static assignments
Configure DNS Settings:
Specify the IP address of DNS servers that network clients will use to resolve domain names.
Primary DNS: Required DNS server for domain name resolution.
Secondary DNS (optional): Backup DNS server if the primary fails.
Assign a Tag to categorize or organize your subnet.
