During the signup process, Owen selects technop.openvpn.com as the web domain for the User portal. This domain uniquely identifies the WPC that will be set up by Owen and is used by Connect Client applications (WPC Client software) to identify the WPC that it needs to connect to. Owen wants to provide Remote Access to a private website and other private services hosted in an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) to himself and employees. ## **Illustration of WPC** ## **Setup** Owen followed the steps shown below to make the AWS VPC with IP address range of 192.168.0.0/28 part of the WPC. 1. Configured a Network to represent the AWS VPC and enters 192.168.0.0/28 as the **Subnets** for the **Network**. See, [How to add a Network](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/adding-a-network.md) 2. Clicked on the **download** icon next to the Connector created for the Network to reveal various options and selected **Launch Connector on AWS** from the options list. This started the process of using the CloudFormation template to instantiate a Connector VM in the AWS VPC. See, [Launch Connector on AWS](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/launch-connector-on-aws.md) 3. This newly launched Connector instance is shown with the IP address of `192.168.0.13` in the WPC illustration above. Owen had allowed CloudFormation to create IAM resources, the Connector will automatically configure the VPC route table and update it as needed when Connectors are deployed in other Networks. 4. As shown in [Launch Connector on AWS](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/launch-connector-on-aws.md), Owen added the Security Group of the Connector instance to the inbound rules of the Security Group associated with the webserver at `192.168.0.14`. This will allow traffic to be routed through the Connector instance. 5. Now Owen connects to CloudConnexa (see, [Connecting to CloudConnexa](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/user-downloading-app-getting-profile-and-connecting.md)). On connection, Owen can access the application server on the AWS VPC at `192.168.0.14`. ## List of All Remote Access and ZTNA Tutorials - [Tutorial: Use CloudConnexa for Remote Access](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/tutorials/use-case-tutorials/remote-access---ztna/tutorial--use-cloudconnexa-for-remote-access.md) - [Tutorial: Use CloudConnexa for Secure Access to Your AWS VPC](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/tutorials/use-case-tutorials/remote-access---ztna/tutorial--use-cloudconnexa-for-secure-access-to-your-aws-vpc.md) - [Tutorial: Use CloudConnexa for Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/tutorials/use-case-tutorials/remote-access---ztna/tutorial--use-cloudconnexa-for-zero-trust-network-access--ztna.md) - [Tutorial: Use CloudConnexa for Remote Access to a Private Application](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/tutorials/use-case-tutorials/remote-access---ztna/tutorial--use-cloudconnexa-for-remote-access-to-a-private-application.md) - [Tutorial: Use CloudConnexa To Provide Remote Access to an Application With Load Balancing](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/tutorials/use-case-tutorials/remote-access---ztna/tutorial--use-cloudconnexa-to-provide-remote-access-to-an-application-with-load-balancing.md) - [Tutorial: Use CloudConnexa for Remote Access to Applications on Networks Having Overlapping IP Address Subnets](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/tutorials/use-case-tutorials/remote-access---ztna/tutorial--use-cloudconnexa-for-remote-access-to-applications-on-networks-having-overlapping-ip-address-subnets.md) - [Tutorial: Deploy Multiple Connectors To Increase the Performance and Availability of Remote Access](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/tutorials/use-case-tutorials/remote-access---ztna/tutorial--deploy-multiple-connectors-to-increase-the-performance-and-availability-of-remote-access.md) ## List of All Remote Access and ZTNA Videos - [Video: Use CloudConnexa to Access Your AWS VPC](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/videos/use-cases/video--use-cloudconnexa-to-access-your-aws-vpc.md) - [Video: Use CloudConnexa for Zero Trust Network Access to Private Applications on Your AWS VPC](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/videos/use-cases/video--use-cloudconnexa-for-zero-trust-network-access-to-private-applications-on-your-aws-vpc.md) - [Video: Use CloudConnexa for access to your GCP VPC](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/videos/use-cases/video--use-cloudconnexa-for-access-to-your-gcp-vpc.md) - [Video: Use CloudConnexa for access to your Azure VNet](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/videos/use-cases/video--use-cloudconnexa-for-access-to-your-azure-vnet.md) - [Video: Use CloudConnexa to Remotely Access Your Home Network](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/videos/use-cases/video--use-cloudconnexa-to-remotely-access-your-home-network.md) - [Video: Use CloudConnexa to Connect to Your Remote Desktop Server](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/videos/use-cases/video--use-cloudconnexa-to-connect-to-your-remote-desktop-server.md) - [Video: Use CloudConnexa for Zero Trust Network Access to a Public SaaS Application](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/videos/use-cases/video--use-cloudconnexa-for-zero-trust-network-access-to-a-public-saas-application.md) - [Video: Application Domain-Based Routing Cloaks IP Addresses](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/videos/features/video--application-domain-based-routing-cloaks-ip-addresses.md) - [Video: No Incoming Connections To Your Network Prevents Denial of Service Attacks](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/videos/features/video--no-incoming-connections-to-your-network-prevents-denial-of-service-attacks.md) - [Video: Application Domain-Based Routing Segments Your Network](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/videos/features/video--application-domain-based-routing-segments-your-network.md) - [Video: Application Domain-based Routing Allows IP Addresses to Overlap](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/videos/features/video--application-domain-based-routing-allows-ip-addresses-to-overlap.md) - [Video: Create Multiple Isolated Overlay Networks](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/videos/features/video--create-multiple-isolated-overlay-networks.md) - [Video: Automatic Network Segmentation Limits Lateral Movement](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/videos/features/video--automatic-network-segmentation-limits-lateral-movement.md) --- Prev: [Tutorial: Deploy Multiple Connectors To Increase the Performance and Availability of Remote Access](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/tutorials/use-case-tutorials/remote-access---ztna/tutorial--deploy-multiple-connectors-to-increase-the-performance-and-availability-of-remote-access.md) Next: [Tutorial: Use CloudConnexa for Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/tutorials/use-case-tutorials/remote-access---ztna/tutorial--use-cloudconnexa-for-zero-trust-network-access--ztna.md) Index: https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/llms.txt
