Modify a global network using AWS Network Manager
After setting up a global network you further modify it by performing a number of tasks.
Tasks you can perform to enhance your global network include:
-
Monitor and manage global network resources from other AWS accounts.
AWS Global Networks for Transit Gateways supports multi-account access. If enabled, multi-account allows you to manage, monitor, and view dashboards of resources from AWS accounts shared with your account.
-
Register a transit gateway
Register existing transit gateways in your global network. When you register a transit gateway all transit gateway attachments are automatically included in the registration. A transit gateway must first be created before it can be registered. For more information about transit gateways and creating one, see Transit gateways in the Amazon VPC Transit Gateways User Guide.
-
Create sites and links, and connect devices
Add representations of physical devices and sites to your global network. You can then create a link that associates a device and a site.
-
Create customer gateway associations
Create associations between two devices or between a device and a transit gateway Connect peer.
-
Access global network dashboards
AWS Global Networks for Transit Gateways includes separate transit gateway network and transit gateway dashboards. On these dashboards you can view logical trees and geographic maps of your networks, which includes attachments, sites and devices. You can also view monitoring and events dashboards, allowing you to view Amazon CloudWatch metrics and to set threshold alarms on these metrics.
If your account is set up for multi-account, you can manage global network resources from multiple AWS accounts. For more information on multi-account, see Multi-account in AWS Global Networks for Transit Gateways.
