About Lab
Overview:
A virtual private cloud (VPC) is a virtual network dedicated to your AWS account. It is logically isolated from other virtual networks in the AWS Cloud. You can launch your AWS resources, such as Amazon EC2 instances, into your VPC.
When you create a VPC, you must specify a range of IPv4 addresses for the VPC in the form of a Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) block. For example, 10.0.0.0/16. This is the primary CIDR block for your VPC.
During this lab, you will learn how to create a VPC and a subnet inside that VPC.
