Multi-region AWS setup private endpoints vs peering

MongoDB Atlas
7

Hi Anthony,

I’ve set up 3 peering connections to us-east-1 , us-east-2 and us-west-1 but no luck

I presume you’ve set up the 3 above peering connections to/from your us-east-1 application first to test before replicating a similar set up for the us-east-2 backup prod app (or vice-versa) but correct me if i’m wrong here.

Any docs on how to debug peering connections?

Unfortunately there isn’t any specific AWS peering connection troubleshooting documentation to my knowledge on how to debug peering connections. However, in saying so, can you advise on the following:

  • If all 3 of the peering connections on the Atlas UI are showing as Available
  • If you deselected the Same as application VPC region box in the Atlas VPC peering modal where applicable?
  • If you’ve added the application VPC CIDR / Security Group ID’s in the Network Access List?
  • If you’re receive any error messages being received when setting up the connection on Atlas
  • If you’re receive any error messages being returned by the application when attempting to connect using the peering connections

The following pages may help troubleshoot the issue:

Regards,
Jason
