Client VPN attachments in Amazon Transit Gateway

When you associate a Client VPN endpoint with a transit gateway, a Client VPN attachment is automatically created, allowing you to route traffic between your VPCs, on-premises networks, and Client VPN endpoints. Amazon Transit Gateway supports cross-account Client VPN attachments, allowing accounts that the transit gateway is shared with to create their own Client VPN attachments.

After the Client VPN endpoint is associated with a transit gateway, you can view the attachment in the Transit Gateway console under Transit gateway attachments. The attachment will be listed with a type of Client VPN.

Requirements and limitations

  • Your transit gateway must have an assigned IPv4 or IPv6 CIDR block before you can create a Client VPN attachment.

  • Route table propagation must be enabled for Client VPN attachments to allow traffic between your Client VPN endpoint and transit gateway. See Enable route propagation.
