Transit Gateway

Details about Transit Gateway replication with Arpio

Transit Gateway

Arpio replicates Transit Gateways, and all of their attachments and route tables, to the recovery environment.

The following attributes are translated when replicating Transit Gateways to the recovery environment:

Attribute

Translation

Transit Gateway

Attachments

If a Transit Gateway has a VPC or peering attachment that is being replicated, it is translated to the Arpio managed recovery account.

Transit Gateway Route Tables

If Transit Gateway has a route table that is being replicated, it is translated to the Arpio managed recovery account.

RAM Resource Share

If the Transit Gateway is being shared via RAM, we translate the Resource Share to the Arpio managed recovery environment. 

Transit Gateway Route Table

Arpio replicates selected Transit Gateway Route Tables from your primary environment to your recovery environment.

If a Transit Gateway Route Table in your primary environment is the default propagation or default association route table for its Transit Gateway, its replica in the recovery environment will be the default route table for the corresponding Transit Gateway.

You may manually add routes to other target types. For example, you can add static routes to the recovery transit gateway route table, and Arpio will retain those routes when it applies new recovery points to the environment.

The following attributes are translated during replication:

Attribute

Translation

Transit Gateway Attachment

If the route destination is a resource type that points to another attachment, we translate the resource ID of that attachment. Can be another Transit Gateway or VPC.

Prefix List Route Destinations

Translated to the corresponding prefix list in the recovery region

Transit Gateway

Translated to the corresponding Arpio managed Transit Gateway  in the recovery environment

The following resources are automatically selected into recovery points when a Route Table is selected:

  • The Transit Gateway associated with the route table 
  • Any Managed Prefix List References
  • Any Attachment with a static route or any attachment that has an association or propagation to the route table 

Transit Gateway Attachment

Arpio replicates selected Transit Gateway Attachments from your primary environment to your recovery environment.

The following attributes are translated during replication:

Attribute

Translation

Transit Gateway

The Transit Gateway the attachment is associated with is translated to the Arpio managed recovery environment. If the attachment is being peered to another Transit Gateway in the recovery environment, we will translate this Transit Gateway as well. 

Transit Gateway Route Table 

Translated to the corresponding transit gateway route table in the recovery environment 

VPC

Translated to the corresponding Arpio managed VPC in the recovery environment if the attachment type is VPC. 

Subnet

Translated to the corresponding Aprio managed subnet or subnets in the recovery environment if the attachment type is VPC. 

The following resources are automatically selected into recovery points when a Transit Gateway Attachment is selected:

  • The VPC if the attachment is of type VPC.
  • The Subnet if the attachment is of type VPC.
  • The Transit Gateway if the attachment is of type Peering.
  • Any Transit Gateway Route Table associated, propagated, or has routes to the attachment.
