Getting started with VPC

If you already have a folder in Yandex.Cloud, open the page of that folder in the management console. If you don't have any folders yet, create a new folder before creating a cloud network:

1. In the management console, click Create folder.

2. Enter the folder name.

   The name may contain lowercase Latin letters, numbers, and hyphens. The first character must be a letter. The last character can't be a hyphen. The name length must be from 3 to 63 characters.

3. Click Create folder.

Create a cloud network:

1. Open the section Virtual Private Cloud.

2. Click Create network.

3. Enter the network name, for example, test-network.

   The name may contain lowercase Latin letters, numbers, and hyphens. The first character must be a letter. The last character can't be a hyphen. The length of the name must be from 3 to 63 characters.

4. Click Create network.

Create a subnet where cloud resources will be assigned internal IP addresses:

1. Click on the name of the cloud network created.

2. Click Add subnet.

3. Enter the subnet name, for example, test-subnet-1.

   The name may contain lowercase Latin letters, numbers, and hyphens. The first character must be a letter. The last character can't be a hyphen. The length of the name must be from 3 to 63 characters.

4. Select an availability zone from the drop-down list. The first zone on the list will do for the first subnet.

5. Enter the subnet CIDR: its IP address and mask, for example, 10.10.0.0/24. For more information about subnet IP address ranges, see the section Cloud networks and subnets.

6. Click Create subnet.
