Step 8. Configure Network Settings

In this article

[This step applies only if you have selected the Restore to a new location, or with different settings option at the Restore Mode step of the wizard]

At the Network step of the wizard, select to which Amazon VPC a restored EC2 instance must be connected, a subnet in which the EC2 instance will be launched, and a security group — a virtual firewall for the restored EC2 instance.

Select the necessary EC2 instance from the list and click Select.
In the Network window, choose the Amazon VPC, the subnet and the security group.

For a VPC, subnet group and security group to be displayed in the lists of available network specifications, they must be created for the AWS Region specified at step 5 in the AWS Management Console as described in AWS Documetation.

If you restore EC2 instances to the AWS Outpost, for an Outpost subnet to be displayed in the Select Subnet drop-down list, choose the Amazon VPC that has one or more Outpost subnets.
