Create a Client VPN attachment in AWS Transit Gateway - Amazon VPC

Create a Client VPN attachment in AWS Transit Gateway

Prerequisites

  • You must have an existing transit gateway in your account.

  • Your transit gateway must have an assigned IPv4 or IPv6 CIDR block.

A Client VPN attachment is automatically created when you associate a Client VPN endpoint with a transit gateway.

To create a Client VPN attachment using the console

  1. Open the Amazon VPC console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/vpc/.

  2. On the navigation pane, choose Client VPN endpoints.

  3. Choose Create Client VPN endpoint.

  4. Select Transit Gateway as the association type and enter the Transit Gateway ID to use.

  5. Choose Create Client VPN endpoint.

After you create the Client VPN attachment, it appears in the list of attachments with a resource type of Client VPN and an initial state of Pending. When the attachment is ready, the state changes to Available. If the transit gateway is in a different account, the attachment state is Pending acceptance until the transit gateway owner accepts it.

For more information about creating Client VPN endpoints, see Getting Started with AWS Client VPN.

To create a Client VPN attachment using the AWS CLI
