Site to Site VPNs with Advanced Networks

In our installations we primarily use advanced (non-VPC) networks, but
I've become aware of the site-to-site VPN available on VPCs.  I just
wondered if there was a reason this was VPC-only, or whether there was
a good reason these have never been implemented for non-VPC networks?

Regards,

Richard

Richard,

as Dag said, it's a historical thing i.e.

Once upon a time there was only Basic Zone, SG.
Then "Advance Zone' was introduced, with multiple Shared Networks possible
(imagine multiple Basic Zones effectively)
Then Isolated networks were "invented" with some more networking features
(firewall, no ACL; remote VPN, no s-2-s VPN, no support for Private
Gateways)
Then VPC was born with same features as Isolated networks, but s-2-s VPN
was added, Private Gateway was added, ACL instead of "Firewall"

There's a story ^^^ and no need to use Isolated networks, since VPC =
multiple Isolated Networks + some more features...

Best,
Andrija

Yes, but we can see a real use for adding site-to-site VPNs to them as
well.  I just wanted to know whether this was something which has been
considered and discarded in the past for some reason, or just
something that has never yet come up and is therefore possible.

Hi Richard - this is just a historical thing. Keep in mind you still have user/"roadwarrior" VPN on normal isolated networks.
