Overview
Domain expertise for configuring AWS Site-to-Site VPN, the managed service that builds an encrypted IP Security (IPsec) connection between an on-premises network and AWS. Covers the routing decision (static versus dynamic (BGP) routing), creating the connection and its dependent resources in the right order, sizing tunnel bandwidth, consolidating many sites through a VPN Concentrator, applying the customer gateway device configuration, building for high availability, and monitoring and troubleshooting tunnels.
This skill is a router. Each customer task maps to a procedure file under references/. Read the
matching reference in full before acting, then follow its constraints and steps. The reference
files are self-contained: each carries its own decision tables, constraints, procedure, and
troubleshooting.
Execute commands using the AWS MCP server when connected (sandboxed execution, audit logging,
observability). Fall back to the AWS CLI otherwise. Site-to-Site VPN is a regional service: pass
--region {region} matching the VPC or transit gateway the connection terminates on.
Which Site-to-Site VPN task do you need?
| Goal | Reference |
|---|---|
| Decide between static and dynamic (BGP) routing before creating a connection | choosing static or dynamic routing |
| Create an encrypted VPN connection from on-premises to a VPC | creating a site-to-site vpn connection |
| Size tunnel bandwidth at Standard (1.25 Gbps) or Large (5 Gbps) | choosing tunnel bandwidth |
| Connect 25 or more low-bandwidth sites through one shared attachment | connecting many sites with a vpn concentrator |
| Configure the on-premises customer gateway device | applying the customer gateway device configuration |
| Make the connection survive tunnel maintenance and device failure | making a connection highly available |
| Detect a down tunnel and find out why | monitoring and troubleshooting tunnels |
Routing notes
- Decide routing before you build. The static-versus-dynamic decision shapes the customer gateway, the failover behavior, and whether the customer can control which routes enter their network. Run the choosing-static-or-dynamic-routing reference before creating the connection so the customer does not have to recreate it to change routing type.
- The target gateway gates almost everything. A virtual private gateway terminates the VPN at one VPC. A transit gateway fronts many VPCs and is the only target that supports Large (5 Gbps) tunnels, equal-cost multi-path (ECMP) bandwidth aggregation, IPv6 customer gateways, and the VPN Concentrator. The gateway choice lives in the creating reference and is referenced again by the bandwidth and concentrator references, because picking a virtual private gateway closes those doors.
- Bandwidth sizing vs the Concentrator. Both scale capacity, in opposite directions. Large tunnels give one connection more throughput (up to 5 Gbps per tunnel); the Concentrator gives many low-bandwidth sites a shared 5 Gbps attachment so each site does not need its own full-bandwidth connection. Match the reference to whether the customer has one high-throughput site or many small ones.
- AWS side vs device side. Creating the connection and downloading the configuration happen on the AWS side; applying that configuration happens on the customer's on-premises device, which AWS never touches. The applying-the-customer-gateway-device-configuration reference is device-side education, not an AWS-side step.
- Monitoring is its own task. Detecting and diagnosing a down tunnel (CloudWatch metrics, alarms, and VPN logs) is the monitoring reference, separate from building the connection.
