Can You Provide Me a Summary of What to Do to Get a Private Access to Open Telekom Cloud in General?¶
Create an architecture including physical links, VPC structure, IP address scheme, security and redundancy model
Inform your internal IT department and your Open Telekom Cloud administrator to check and be prepared
Decide what WAN architecture you want to use and which provider you prefer
Ask your provider whether they are able to support you with access to Open Telekom Cloud
Now you have a plan
Agree a contract with your network provider and see how long they need for implementation
Depending on the duration for the network part, start with deploying Direct Connect in your VPC
Also create PLAS with your preferred option for ports and bandwidth
Inform your security and IT departments that they need to set up config for eBGP on edge router/firewall
Check that the firewalls in your local network are open for the IP address used (your address space)
When everything is ready: check your connectivity
If ok: great; if not: open a ticket to find out whether the failure is caused by your external network or Open Telekom Cloud
