Adding a second private subnet
In the previous step, you created a VPC with one public subnet and one private subnet. Complete the following steps to add a second private subnet to your VPC. We recommend that you add a second private subnet in a different Availability Zone than your first private subnet.
To add a second private subnet
-
In the navigation pane, choose Subnets.
-
Select the first private subnet that you created in the previous step. On the Description tab, below the list of subnets, make a note of the Availability Zone for this subnet.
-
On the upper left of the subnets pane, choose Create Subnet.
-
For Name tag, enter a name for the private subnet. For example,
WorkSpaces Secure Browser Private Subnet2
. -
For VPC, select the VPC that you created in the previous step.
-
For Availability Zone, select an Availability Zone other than the one you're using for your first private subnet. Selecting a different Availability Zone increases fault tolerance and helps prevent insufficient capacity errors.
-
For IPv4 CIDR block, specify a unique CIDR block range for the new subnet. For example, if your first private subnet has an IPv4 CIDR block range of
10.0.1.0/24
, you could specify a CIDR block range of10.0.2.0/24
for the second private subnet. -
Choose Create.
-
After your subnet is created, choose Close.
