Where:

• trunk_id: Trunk ID you got from the support team in the previous step.
• vlan_id: VLAN-ID for this private connection in trunk 802.1Q. This value is selected by the customer. It must be different from the VLAN-ID values of the private connections previously set up in this trunk.
• peering_subnet: Point-to-point subnet for BGP peering. This value is selected by the customer.
• peer_ip: IP address of the point-to-point (peered) subnet on the customer's equipment. This value is selected by the customer.
• cloud_ip: IP address of the point-to-point (peered) subnet on the Yandex Cloud equipment. This value is selected by the customer.
• peer_bgp_asn: BGP ASN on the customer's equipment in ASPlain format. This value is selected by the customer.
• vpc_net_id: ID of the Yandex Virtual Private Cloud network for a private connection.
• vpc_subnets: List of IPv4 subnet prefixes grouped by Yandex Cloud availability zones. The resources in these subnets will only be accessible via this private connection. These prefixes will be announced over BGP by the Yandex Cloud equipment in the direction towards the customer's equipment.
• folder_id (optional): By default, private connection monitoring metrics will be saved to the folder specified when creating the trunk. If required, you can explicitly specify the folder to save private connection monitoring metrics to.

Support team's response to the customer's requestSupport team's response to the customer's request

Once you complete all required actions for setting up a private connection, the support team will provide the customer with the ID of the created private connection.

Here is an example of support's response when requested to create a private connection (for information):

Monitoring the status of a private connectionMonitoring the status of a private connection

• Use the monitoring service to monitor, on your own, when the private connection BGP session on the Yandex Cloud equipment switches to the running status.
• The support team will notify you once they finish configuring BGP announcements for the subnet prefixes you requested. It may take up to two business days to configure BGP announcements.
• You should check the IP connectivity between your equipment and the cloud resources to be accessible through the configured private connection yourself and notify the support team of the check results.
• If there are any IP connectivity issues, contact support for diagnostics and troubleshooting.
