在AWS中创建NAT节点

| Comments

NAT, Network Address Translation,即网络地址转换。当内部网络的主机想要访问外网,但是又不想直接暴露给公网,可以通过NAT节点来访问外网。这样做有两个好处,第一是内网的主机无需拥有公网IP就可访问网络(NAT节点需要公网IP),节约了公网IP;第二是内网的主机由于没有公网IP,所以公网的电脑无法访问到它,这样就可以隐藏自己。一个很经典的示例是假如你有一台数据库服务器放置在内网中,为在同一个内网中的web服务器提供数据服务,为了安全性考虑你不会把它直接暴露在公网中。但是数据库服务器有时候自己是需要访问公网的,比如需要升级数据库服务器中的某些软件等。采用NAT方案可以很好的解决这个问题。

下图是NAT节点的功能示意图。

一些路由器或者装有特定软件的主机都可以作为NAT节点。在AWS中如果你想创建一个NAT节点的话那是非常的方便,因为AWS直接提供了预装了NAT软件的AMI,你只需直接使用该AMI在你的公共子网中实例化一台机器,并进行相应的配置即可。

下面的图展示了在AWS中的一个经典的VPC架构。该VPC里面建立了两个子网,一个是公共子网,通过Intenet Geteway和公网连接;一个是私有子网,无法直接访问公网。然后在公共子网中建立了一个EC2机器,使用的是AWS提供的具有NAT功能的AMI,并为它分配了一个弹性IP,这样该EC2就是一个NAT节点。在私有子网的所有机器都具有了通过该NAT节点访问外网的能力。

为了创建这样一套网络及机器,最简便的方式当然是使用AWS提供的CloudFormation了。如果不了解CloudFormation,可以看我以前写过的一篇文章 《亚马逊云服务之CloudFormation》。下面展示的是创建该整个VPC的CloudFormation脚本。

你可以通过AWS提供的图形化界面AWS Management Console来使用该CloudFormation脚本,也可以通过AWS CLI来使用。使用以上的CloudFormation脚本创建的VPC可以一键创建你AWS中的基础网络架构。从此再也不用为配置网络发愁了。
