Cloud Enterprise Network:AttachCenChildInstance

Last Updated:Mar 25, 2024

Attaches a network instance to a Cloud Enterprise Network (CEN) instance.

Operation description

CEN allows you to attach a network instance that belongs to another Alibaba Cloud account to your CEN instance. Before you attach the network instance, CEN must acquire permissions to access the network instance that belongs to another Alibaba Cloud account.

  • For more information about how to grant CEN permissions on virtual private clouds (VPCs) that belong to another Alibaba Cloud account, see GrantInstanceToCen .
  • For more information about how to grant CEN permissions on Cloud Connect Network (CCN) instances that belong to another Alibaba Cloud account, see GrantInstanceToCbn .
  • By default, you cannot grant permissions on virtual border routers (VBRs) that belong to another Alibaba Cloud account to a CEN instance. If you need to use this feature, contact your account manager.
