Guide: Create a VPC

This guide describes how to create a new VPC on FPT Cloud, including choosing the VPC type, filling in basic information, and optionally configuring a Subnet during creation.

Before You Begin​

  • You are logged in to the FPT Cloud Portal.
  • You have permission to create a VPC in the target Project.
  • You have determined the appropriate VPC type (General or Specific) — the VPC type cannot be changed after creation.

Steps​

  1. In the left navigation bar, select Network → VPC.

  2. Click the Create VPC button in the upper-right corner of the screen.

  3. In the VPC creation form, fill in the following information:

    Main information:

    • Type — select the VPC type:
      • General: suitable for most standard workloads.
      • Specific: suitable for workloads requiring dedicated resources or specialized network configuration.
    • Name — enter an identifying name for the VPC (required).
    • Owner — select the organization that owns the VPC (required).
    • Project — select the Project the VPC will belong to (required).

    Subnet configuration (optional):

    If you want to initialize a Subnet during VPC creation, you can also fill in:

    • CIDR — the IP address range of the Subnet in CIDR notation (e.g., 192.168.1.0/24).
    • Subnet name — an identifying name for the Subnet.

    Note: Skip the Subnet configuration section if you want to add a Subnet later. Subnets can be created and managed separately at Network → Subnets.

  4. Click Confirm to complete.

  5. The new VPC appears in the list with status Active.

Important: The VPC type (General or Specific) is fixed at creation time and cannot be changed afterward. If you need a different VPC type, you must create a new VPC and migrate your resources to it.
