ACP-Cloud1 Exam Dumps - Alibaba Cloud Computing Questions and Answers

According to the Alibaba Cloud Academy, a VPC is an isolated network environment that is completely isolated from each other. Each VPC has an independent tunnel ID, and a tunnel ID corresponds to a virtualized network. This means that different VPCs cannot communicate with each other through the tunnel ID. Subnets are not divided like the traditional network environment, but rather are logical divisions of the VPC. Different cloud servers within each subnet are connected by the same router, but different subnets are interconnected by route tables, not switches. ECS instances in a VPC use security group firewalls for Layer 4 network access control, not Layer 2. The internal networks of different VPCs are completely isolated and can be interconnected through IP addresses mapped to the outside, such as NAT Gateway or EIP. References: ACP Cloud Computing Certification Preparation Course - Internetworking with VPC, Alibaba Cloud VPC User Guide

In Alibaba Cloud, a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) provides isolated virtual networking environments where users can configure their own IP address ranges, CIDR blocks, routing tables, gateways, and other network elements. This functionality is critical for users who require an isolated, customizable network environment for their virtual machines in the public cloud. SDN (Software-Defined Networking) and NFV (Network Functions Virtualization) are underlying technologies, while VPN offers secure connectivity but not full virtual network management.
