The Yandex BareMetal network infrastructure includes public and private networks that ensure server connectivity with the internet and between each other.

Public networkPublic network

A public network is an internet-facing network to which all servers are physically connected. Public networks provide ephemeral and dedicated public subnets.

For more information about public networks, see Public network.

Private networkPrivate network

A private network is a local network to which all servers from a single pool are connected. Private networks provide private subnets, VRFs, and private connections to cloud networks.

For more information about private networks, see Private network.

MAC addresses of network interfacesMAC addresses of network interfaces

You can look up the MAC addresses of the BareMetal server network interfaces on the server information page under Public network and Private network.

Server routing tableServer routing table

The BareMetal server’s OS must feature a routing table that sets traffic routes for the public and private networks at the same time.

The actual server routing table configuration depends on your OS; however, the routing table must follow this example:

0.0.0.0/0 via <network_interface_in_public_network>
10.0.0.0/8 via <network_interface_in_private_network>
172.16.0.0/12 via <network_interface_in_private_network>
192.168.0.0/16 via <network_interface_in_private_network>
