hi it's cute ouncer from c2 advisor calm hopefully this would be a quick video I want to introduce the concept of abstracted networking in AWS when we first get a router we get some type of cable whether that's a physical cable or some virtual SSH you were configuring like our wireless router at home we get some physical access to a physical device and we get into that device and we get into the command line and we do stuff at the command line and whether it's configuring

VLANs route tables etc we interface with the network via this very oh it's it's a it looks like a physical book we get to the network via this comfortable method an AWS all of that is abstracted away AWS networking abstracts the services from the physical underlay for example the routing table if I want to get from one ec2 instance to my data center instead of going to a router and configuring a route table or routing protocol within my physical switching or router network I'd go to

the AWS route table add a route and then some mystical abstracted data center process goes into AWS is infrastructure your VPC and makes that change the configuration on the physical layer is abstracted away from mine I hate to say it Software Defined intentions I want to create a route that goes from 170 2.30 1.0.0 with a 16-bit mass to a default port that's just done for me or a default gateway to a default a default route to a default gateway I have no idea of what

the physical infrastructure looks like the in 10th is for me to go into the AWS control panel whether that's via the portal or the API and configure the intent of how I want my network to work I plan on dropping a little bit more of these nuggets throughout the next couple of weeks hopefully this is just one of many I'd love to hear questions on Twitter about what you would like to learn more about about AWS networking drop a note in the comment session at the

bottom of the YouTube channel or hit me on Twitter at CT advisor and of course you can find me on the web the c2 advisor com
