Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs) provide isolated network environments for your bare metal servers. Each VPC contains one or more subnets that define the IP address ranges for your resources.

​

Using VPCs with Bare Metal

When launching a bare metal server, you can select which VPC and subnet to use for networking. This determines the private IP address range your server will use and enables communication with other resources in the same VPC.
