Create and manage VPC

KakaoCloud's VPC (Virtual Private Cloud) is a user-defined private network service. By using VPC, users can quickly and easily build a network suited to their environment by combining various network components.
This guide explains how to create and manage VPCs in the VPC service.

Permissions
  • VPC role management follows IAM-based access control (RBAC), and only Project Admin can create and manage VPCs. Other project members can only view the VPC.
  • For information about your IAM permissions, please contact your organization administrator (Admin).
