Implementation overview

Deploy AWS Direct Connect via partner model: FTI provides the hosted connection, the customer accepts it in AWS, then creates a hosted VIF to connect to VPC or public services.

Official docs: Create hosted connection, Accept hosted connection, Configure hosted VIF.

Direct connectivity from FPT infrastructure

  • AWS: direct connectivity in Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia.
  • OCI: direct connectivity in Singapore.
  • GCP: direct connectivity in Singapore.
  • Other clouds/regions: via partner hubs (PCCW, Megaport, Equinix, Epsilon).

Prerequisites

  • AWS account with Direct Connect permissions.
  • Network parameters: VLAN, IP ranges, ASN/BGP, VIF type.
  • Required bandwidth, AWS region, and redundancy plan.

Implementation steps

  1. FTI creates the hosted connection and provides LOA/CFA.
  2. Customer accepts the hosted connection in AWS Console.
  3. Create the Virtual Interface (VIF) and configure BGP.
  4. Run SLA tests and complete acceptance.

Acceptance checklist

  • Connection and VIF status are available.
  • BGP session up; routing and throughput meet SLA.
  • Failover verified if redundant paths are used.

Deliverables

  • Accepted connection details and configuration summary.
  • Test/acceptance report.
  • 24/7 support contacts.
