CVO replication IPs are transmitting to a public AWS bucket instead of private
Applies to
- NetApp Console
- Cloud Volumes ONTAP (CVO)
- Amazon Web Services S3
Issue
- Intercluster LIFs on CVO are transmitting data to a public AWS IP to reach the S3 bucket as opposed to a private connection..
Cause
- The CVO was not configured to us a VPN or AWS direct connect to communicate with a VPC endpoint that uses a private address.
Solution
To ensure S3 traffic remains private and does not traverse public AWS endpoints:
- Create an S3 VPC Gateway Endpoint in the relevant AWS region for the VPC where the CVO instance resides.
- Attach the VPC Gateway Endpoint to the subnet route table(s) used by the CVO instance.
- No need to change the FabricPool object store server DNS—the VPC Gateway Endpoint will automatically intercept S3 traffic destined for the regional S3 URL and route it privately.
- Verify that after the endpoint is in place, new connections from the CVO cluster to S3 use private 10.x.x.x IP addresses instead of public IPs.
