My assumption is that EIP for VPC should work exactly the same as EIP for
Isolated Networks since EIP is like another Public IP except that it can
be moved across zones. Also, we do support static NAT in VPC as well as
Isolated. So, my thinking is that it might just work with minimal effort.

Manan Shah
