Visibility into Cloud Resources

CoPilot provides visibility into your cloud resources such as the virtual machines you have in any cloud and the VPC/VNets and subnets you have in any cloud.

Viewing VPC/VNets Running in your Clouds

CoPilot shows in a central location all the VPC/VNets running in your clouds for cloud accounts onboarded onto Aviatrix Controller.

In the CoPilot > Cloud Resources > Cloud Assets > VPC/VNets & Subnets page:

CoPilot shows VPC/VNets that were created in the CSP environment as well as those that were created as part of deploying Aviatrix resources such as those created during the deployment of your controller, CoPilot, and gateways.

A VPC/VNet can be marked as Aviatrix managed where:

  • Aviatrix managed = Yes — Indicates an Aviatrix gateway is running in the VPC/VNet.

  • Aviatrix managed = No — Indicates no Aviatrix gateways exist in the VPC/VNet.

If you create a VPC/VNet by using cloud provider tools instead of Aviatrix tools (the Controller UI or CoPilot UI), the VPC/VNet will be marked as unmanaged even if an Aviatrix gateway is running in it.

You can use the filter and search functions to sort and find VPC/VNets by cloud, region, IP address CIDR, CSP tag(s), Aviatrix SmartGroup, and other criteria.

You can create SmartGroups from the VPC/VNets & Subnets page. You can create a SmartGroup from one or more VPC/VNets with a maximum of 20 VPC/VNets per SmartGroup.

Only Aviatrix-managed VPC/VNets are shown for Alibaba Cloud and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).

Viewing Virtual Machines Running in your Clouds

CoPilot shows in a central location all the virtual machines running in your clouds for cloud accounts onboarded onto Aviatrix Controller.

In the CoPilot > Cloud Resources > Cloud Assets > Virtual Machines page:

CoPilot shows VMs that were created in the CSP environment as well as those that were created when deploying Aviatrix resources such as those running your controller, CoPilot, and gateways.

A VM can be marked as Aviatrix managed where:

  • Aviatrix managed = Yes — Indicates the VM is behind an Aviatrix Gateway; that is, running in a VPC/VNet where an Aviatrix gateway is deployed.

  • Aviatrix managed = No — Indicates the VM is running in a VPC/VNet where no Aviatrix gateways exist.

  • Aviatrix managed = Gateways — Indicates the VM is running an Aviatrix Gateway (Transit, Spoke, or Specialty/Other)

You can use the filter and search functions to sort and find VMs by cloud, region, IP address, CSP tag(s), Aviatrix SmartGroup, and other criteria.

You can create SmartGroups from the Virtual Machines page. You can create a SmartGroup from one or more VMs with a maximum of 20 VMs per SmartGroup.

Only Aviatrix-managed VMs are shown for Alibaba Cloud and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
