govuk-aws: 3. Networking Outline

Status

Pending

Context

This ADR in part supersedes 0003.

In ADR 0003, we specified some IP address ranges for staging and production - ones that matched Carrenza as far as possible.

As part of the gradual migration of Staging and Production to AWS, we need to use a VPN to talk to Carrenza, so the chosen IP addresses conflict.

Decision

The VPCs will be assigned the following IP ranges:

Environment IP Range
Integration 10.1.0.0/16
Staging 10.12.0.0/16
Production 10.13.0.0/16
Test 10.200.0.0/16

That is:

  • Integration and Test do not change.
  • Staging moves from 10.2.0.0/16 to 10.12.0.0/16.
  • Production moves from 10.3.0.0/16 to 10.13.0.0/16.

Consequences

We can now set up short-lived VPNs between Carrenza Staging and Production environments and AWS Staging and Production environments.
