A cloud network is a type of network that can be used for connections from a local VM to a remote cloud instance.

To create and use a cloud network, do the following:

1. Set up a virtual cloud network on .

   The following steps create and configure a virtual cloud network (VCN) on . The VCN is used to tunnel network traffic across the cloud.

   1. Ensure that you have a cloud profile for connecting to . See .

   2. Run the following VBoxManage cloud command:

      VBoxManage cloud --provider="OCI" --profile="vbox-oci" network setup

      where vbox-oci is the name of your cloud profile.

      Other options are available for the VBoxManage cloud network setup command, to enable you to configure details for the VCN. For example, you can configure the operating system used for the cloud gateway instance and the IP address range used by the tunneling network. See .

2. Register the new cloud network with .

   Use the Network tool. See .

3. Add cloud network adaptors to the local VMs that will use the cloud network. See .
