As Steve indirectly pointed out above, an AWS VPC is not a real layer 2
domain.. so there's nothing really to "extend into".
The best way to conceptualise a VPC at a layer 2 level (at least from a
network engineer's perspective) is to imagine a full mesh of hosts,
connected by overlay tunnels,
Friends don't let friends build large layer2 networks!
That said; if you wanted to get a little creative you could run up a
csr1000v and setup otv and lisp from AWS to your on prem infra. I have
never set it up but would be interesting to see if the MP transport
supports it.
I guess the question

I'm not sure if the Megaport Direct Connect is any different to a regular
AWS Direct Connect, but a friend of mine has successfully used a regular
AWS Direct Connect that they extended into their EC2 VPC and assigned IP
addresses to their instance
That’s still routed and not bridged over the DC. It’s all layer 3 over DCs
unless (as mentioned) you use an L2 tunnelling method onto a compute VM.

I'm not sure if the Megaport Direct Connect is any different to a regular
AWS Direct Connect, but a friend of mine has successfully used a regular
AWS Direct Connect that they extended into their EC2 VPC and assigned IP
addresses to their instances from their own /28 range.

Hi Joseph,
Thank your for your enquiry.
As Simon Thomason pointed out, AWS Direct Connect - Private Virtual
Interface is mainly for connecting two private networks together by
exchanging routes via BGP.
In your scenario of extending your on-premises network into the native AWS
VPC so they are
I'm not our cloud wizard so let me throw on a technical solutions guy or
two on this thread to bring it to their attention!

My understanding is that over MP you need to peer with AWS in BGP.

No, VLANs are utilized in AWS Direct Connect only to separate traffic
between virtual interfaces.
There may be creative ways to kind of achieve it but not

Over megaport, I'd like to use a VXC (Or Direct Connect) - On that
