Create and assign an internet gateway

When you create a VPC, an Internet gateway is automatically assigned to it. You can use that gateway, or you can assign your own. If you are using the default Internet gateway, continue with the procedure described in Create a security group.

Otherwise, create an Internet gateway specific to your needs. Associate that internet gateway with your VPC and subnet.

For information about how to create an Internet Gateway, see Internet Gateways in the AWS documentation.
