AWS Local Zones - Understand the Subnets
Local Zones have some attributes that we need to take notes expecially when we need to create EIP or RDS. Below some explainations:
Command:
aws ec2 describe-availability-zones --filters "Name=zone-type,Values=local-zone" --region ap-southeast-1
Above is using Bangkok Local Zone
ZoneName: This property can be use when we want to create subnet in Local Zone
GroupName: It is use to group all the local zones available in that place\area.
Note: The picture above i am using us-west-2-lax (LA) because Bangkok only have 1 Local Zone.NetworkBorderGroup: When we use local zone, AWS will create 2 networkBorder Group (Region and Local Zone). It use by EIP / IPv6(now only available in LA at the point of writing this blog). If EIP is for Local Zone, select the NetworkBorderGroup for it.
There is it.
