Basic AWS Network Setup
You will need to provide billing information to setup an AWS account. Once you have completed the basic account setup you will be presented with the AWS console.
Step 2 – Create a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
To allow VM instances access to more than one interface you need to create a VPC (virtual private cloud).
You need to change dashboards to VPC and for our purpose start the VPC wizard.
It is important to note that like most multi-tenant environments AWS reserves the first 5 IP address of each network that is created for its own router / firewall and DHCP / DNS servers.
