DCD How-Tos

You can configure a Cross Connect via the DCD and associate it with multiple VDCs to establish a connection between them via a private LAN.

Prerequisites

Contract owners and administrators can create, access, manage, and use Cross Connect without additional permissions. However, non-admin users need relevant access to create and manage Cross Connect. For more information, see Set Up User Privileges for Cross Connect.
Before you connect data centers, ensure they:
- belong to the same region and contract. Prior to connecting, remember to provision your data centers.
- have the same IP address range.
Ensure that the IP address is tied to only one instance.
The LANs to be used for the connection should be private LANs. The private NICs to be connected should have unique IP addresses that belong to the same IP range.
