You should never put your private key on a bastion host. You give a publicly accessible instance access to your entire environment if you do that. Instead you should use SSH agent forwarding. Example: on a Mac, just add your key to your keychain with `ssh-add -K `. Then you can connect to your public EC2 instance with `ssh -A ec2-user@` and from there you can jump to any private instance with the same command `ssh -A ec2-user@`. This gives you the same level of access but does not require putting a .pem file on your bastion host. Great video!
You are gem in explaining concepts clearly....Please continue making videos....this channel will become a top one in AWS segment....... Can you please make videos series on AWS EKS.
Hi there, I followed instructions & 1st time I was able to successfully telnet to my EC2 in the public-subnet. If I had 'inbound rules' for SecGroup config for my public subnet set to "my ip" I could not ping and/or ssh at all. I changed this to "all" and it started to work. Thanks
Yeah typically your ISP will allocate new IP every now and then to your home router and hence MyIP will change. If your local router IP changes you would have to modify inbound rule and reselect MyIP so that your new IP is allowed. If you make it 0.0.0.0/0 then you don’t need to modify SG rules anymore as it matches any IP (however its not recommended for ports like SSH, RDP etc)
Hi that was a simple and clear explanation ,but i am a new learner in 2023, this seems different version in AWS now? Have you got newer version classes by any chance please?
Hi, I am not able to access EC2 public instance to public subnet. I did everything same, step by step but unable to access it the public instance.Could you please help me do it?
i was not able to find out the next video ..... i was looking for the answer to have internet access for a instance in private subnet and thats the only thing you did not explain in this video and i cannot see your next video regarding that ... can you please tell me... how to do that
Hmm yes you can say so, we just did it to reach to private ec2 instance. However if you know about jump host, it essentially does the same thing. You have to make sure that jump host is secured by restricting security groups etc
Thanks for your great lecture. I have a question in this case, if a instance is in public subnet and no public ip is assigned to it but it is located behind internet facing ELB. is it possible to communicate a client which is outside of VPC?
Yes traffic will reach over from the ELB. Ideally this instance should be in a private subnet but even if you launch in public subnet it has local route to receive traffic from ELB.
This seems like a pretty lame way to access EC2 in private subnet ? I'm no AWS pro or anything, but is there another way to reroute SSH to private subnet from public one ?
Hi , I Created a private subnet as suggested by you in this video. It is saying there is no private subnet in VPC. I am getting this error in code. jsii.errors.JSIIError: There are no 'Private' subnet groups in this VPC. Available types: Public
Thanks so much for your simplified way of impacting knowledge. One quick question if you can spare me a bit of your time, what if both EC2-instances are not sharing the same pem-key or must they share the same pem-key for it to work?
Nope, EC2 can have different keys. Just that you have to know which key is for which ec2 instance. Otherwise technically you can definitely have a separate key for each ec2 instance. Hope this helps.
This was very helpful. I'm new to this and there is a lot of trivial and poor guides to educate beginners. Thank you. Does anyone know the reason why I would be getting a "permission denied (publickey)." after attempting to access private network on SSH. I could of done something wrong when setting it up, but so far everything presented had worked accordingly except the public key. I did use puttygen as well on the key and tried to use it that way, but that asked me for a passphrase, which I did not set one up.
At which step are you getting this error?Certainly issue is with the key. For logging to public ec2 instance you need to use ppk to login from your windows workstation. For ssh from public to private ec2 instance you need to use pem file. Make sure you are creating both ppk n pem file properly.
@@AWSwithChetan hey thanks for the response I eventually found out it was an error with the user name. I was running my private subnets in Ubuntu. But I was trying to login as ec2-user 🤦🏿♂️
@@AWSwithChetan thanks for responding. Do you mean to say your 'AWS networking course' is not sufficient to clear the AWS Assoc SA exam? Are you recommending Stephane Mareek's course instead? Rgds Uday
Yes thats right. Networking course is hands on course for understanding VPC and other networking components in AWS. It will cover may be 40-50% of Solutions Architect course. Stephane has dedicated course for SAA exam which is more exam oriented
Not really. Wizards does the things automatically and intension here to understand whats under the hood. What we did in this video shows the steps. Also in real world the actual VPC will be slightly more complex and you should know what components vpc contains n how they relate.
I'm getting ping forever. It is going on.... I have selected different CIDR values for my public and private subnets. Can someone tell me how to stop my ping output pls?

Putting a prem key on internet facing server is a major security breach. Is there a way to SSH into Private SN without doing that. I know we can use Bastion server, but is there any other way?
Thank you for this video...very easy to follow. I would also appreciate if you could direct me to your tutorial video on CIDR explanation, i couldn't find the same.

Great video!
Very clearly explained about private and public subnets, instances. Well done Chetan!
After watching this video i was able to connect to private ec2
Thankyou
As a beginner to networking and AWS, this was very useful to me. Thanks.
Thanks, very helpful even 3 years later!!!!
What an wonderful tutorial thank u so much for efforts
Thanks brother ....your explanation is amazing 😍
thank you
this is exactly what I'm looking for.
clearly explanation
Thanks!
very clearly explained and need none other reference for creating vpc and subnets
Excellent bro marvelous explanation it's useful to everyone. Rocked!!
superb, i can now understand aws .... definetly helpful

Hi ,
I Created a private subnet as suggested by you in this video.
It is saying there is no private subnet in VPC.

Why you accessing from the Public EC2-A to Private Ec2-B ?

Thank you for demoing this its been really helpful :)
while creating the private EC2 and in security group configuration. you have mentioned ICMP.Could you please explain why
ICMP is a protocol used by Ping command. Hence in order to check the network reachability we enabled All ICMP IPv4 for Private EC2.
Super sir I loved it
