Does having an EC2 instance in a public subnet automatically make that a Bastian host? Because in the video I did not see any specific configurations to the instance in the public subnet. What make an EC2 instance a Bastian host?

[@shaikayub1497]

This is I want to ask him. He did not made any configurations as bastion host. He just allowed the IP-address range of public subnet to the private subnet. How can he say that it is bastion host. Simply he can say that instead of using NAT gateway with elastic IP. we can only use public subnet range.

[@SrikanthKurri-t6e]

The public EC2 instance in the public subnet is called the Bastion Host (or Jump Host).

[@pradipsharma8504]

Wonderful session. Thanks a lot for your honest effort.

Hi, thanks for the video. Is there anything like this for databases and other services too? I'm trying to find a way to access an internal database from my own PC. The internal database is just a database that is being used by an API on AWS. How can I use something like a VPN to open the database from my own PC?

whenever you create the instance you gave the name of test-key-pair , but when we login into the machine the name of the key will be different. how it happens

[@shakunthalapulugu755]

Hi sir,Thankyou for your elaborated explanation.. please explain the purpose of Natgateway.

[@gouthamu5424]

Hi Rahul, Does all the Instances in the Public subnet will have the Public IP assigned to it ? I thought public subnet is the one with IGW and private subnet is the one with NAT gateway. In the AWS console i have VM's with Public subnet routed to IGW, but the internet doesn't work unless i enable it with Public IP assignment.

[@ramamoorthy3444]

Great explaination. I clear understanding

[@RahulWagh]

Great to hear!

[@pramodpunnuche5426]

Hi Rahul, Thank for the detailed session and I have one question here during NAT gateway session you connected from pubilc ec2 to private ec2 without enabling public IP subnet in private ec2 SG, how you did that? or its connected via NAT gateway?

[@RahulWagh]

both the ec2 instances are in the same VPC which means both are in same network. The public ec2 instance present in public is only accesible via internet but the ec2 instance present in private subnet can be accessed via public ec2 instance internally without the need of NAT gateway because both of them are in internal network

Can you make an video related to how to build SSH connection from bastion Host to EC2 user in Windows PC

[@ThotaSrinath]

Hi Rahul, thanks a lot for the videos. Learning a lot from these videos. One question on bastion host, when we are copying the private key of ec2 which is in a private subnet to the internet exposed ec2 machine in a public subnet. Is it secured?

[@nurhossainsakil9904]

@RahulWagh please help to get the copy of my private key. I can't read or copy the key from my .pem file

Hi Rahul, when we define subnets, when have to use Private ranges right? Such as 192.168.x.x, 172.16.x.x to 172.31.x.x, or 10.x.x.x. Or it doesn't matter?

[@RahulWagh]

It totally depends on your org practice on assignment of cidrs

[@nsquare_4]

sir im unable to understand how the name of the key you changed, please explain sir

[@harryprsd1]

Great info. Can we have similar setup in azure?

[@RahulWagh]

Yes the bastion host concept is common and can be used in any cloud provider

[@nikkiheer4091]

I am not able to connect to private ec2 while connecting to private ec2 from bastion host. Doing ssh as shown in video, i did all steps correctly and tried but while doing ssh to private ec2 nothing is coming, its just blank

[@RahulWagh]

could be many reasons but check the security groups

[@manojgandham-lu7tu]

Well explained ❤

[@RahulWagh]

Glad it was helpful!

[@nikkiheer4091]

Now it's working thank you.

[@iamsreejuks]

Hello Rahul, Correct me if I am wrong, both the ec2 instances are in the same VPC which means both are in same network, so it will connect right?. I still could not understand the concept of bastion. I already watched "Mastering AWS: NAT Gateway Setup in Your VPC" video, comparing these to, the differences are, in this video you explicitly adding Security group and in NAT gateway video all the configurations are same except the private subnet want to access internet(outbound only) using NAT. So adding the security group(enabling access from Private IPs of Public EC2 to all port in the Private ec2) is how a bastion host differs from normal private-public environment.

[@bhardwaj_abhi3421]

yup ,whole setup is same as explained in VPC video

[@ShaliniSingh-mu3em]

How do we establish an internet connection on private ec2?

[@RahulWagh]

Use NAT gateway

Check security groups and source

[@subash000000]

why we are using ipv4 cidr 0f 12 range why not 10 ?

[@RahulWagh]

When it comes to choosing a CIDR range for a network, there are several factors to consider, including the size of the network, the number of hosts that need to be accommodated, and the availability of IP addresses. The "/12" in IPv4 CIDR notation corresponds to a subnet mask of 255.240.0.0, which means that the first 12 bits of the IP address are used for the network portion, leaving 20 bits for host addresses. This allows for a total of 2^20, or 1,048,576, IP addresses in the subnet (though the first and last addresses are reserved for the network and broadcast addresses, respectively). On the other hand, a "/10" CIDR range corresponds to a subnet mask of 255.192.0.0, which provides for 2^22, or 4,194,304, IP addresses in the subnet. The decision to use a "/12" CIDR range instead of a "/10" range would typically be based on the need for fewer IP addresses than a "/10" range provides. Using a "/12" range when a "/10" range is not necessary can help conserve IP addresses, which is particularly important given the limited availability of IPv4 addresses. However, it's also worth noting that the decision could be influenced by other factors, such as the design of the larger network, routing considerations, and the allocation policies of the organization or service provider managing the IP addresses.

[@subash000000]

​@@RahulWagh.thank you for your explanation but i mean we use 10.x.x.x but you use 12. i liked your teaching and explanation.🙂

[@RahulWagh]

@@subash000000 there is no rule on using 10.x.x.. or 12.x.x…. It is your own vpc just pick the range which you like. The vpcs are not in public domain so you have liberty to choose any range

Hello sir what if we created our bastion host in private network so is there anyway ? How we can access that

[@RahulWagh]

The whole purpose of bastion host is to enable access to server present into private subnets. Bastion host in private subnet doesn’t make a sense

[@bikdigdaddy]

i did the exact same but i didn't make a private route table and it still worked. why

[@RahulWagh]

May be you might have made the private subnet as public subnet

[@bikdigdaddy]

@@RahulWagh I'm pretty sure i did not. upon further inspection, i found that there's a default route table assigned to the private subnet (you see it at 10:44) and that allows connectivity inside the same VPC. so that implies if you allow ssh to pvt ec2 in the security group, you'll be able to connect to it from the public ec2 thus no route table needed.
