Updated September 21, 2026

IPsec Container Instance is an image with strongSwan open source software. You can use it to set up an IPsec connection between Yandex Cloud and a remote site for IP connectivity between your cloud resources and remote site resources.

This image runs strongSwan as a Docker container. The remote site’s IPsec gateway must be pre-configured and ready to interact with IPsec Container Instance.

The deployment will require cloud resources.
