Router Configuration

The Router Configuration is a critical component within AWS Direct Connect, enabling users to set up, maintain, and monitor their network interfaces for efficient and secure data transfer between their on-premises networks and AWS services. This resource allows the configuration of BGP, ASNs, and VLAN tags essential for establishing network connections. Detailed information and guidance can be found in the official AWS Direct Connect documentation.

The Router Configuration is directly tied to the Direct Connect Virtual Interface, as it provides the necessary parameters for establishing and managing network connections. A virtual interface, linked with a router configuration, forms the basis of your dedicated network link between AWS and your data centre or corporate network.
