Hands-on AWS Client VPN with Certificate Authentication, AD, MFA, Transit Gateway, Site-to-Site VPN, and VPC Peering.

What you'll learn
- Set up and configure AWS Client VPN endpoints from scratch, including certificate-based authentication.
- Integrate Client VPN with Microsoft Active Directory for user and group-based access control.
- Enforce Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for secure remote access.
- Configure and test routing scenarios, including split-tunnel vs. full-tunnel VPN connections.
- Implement advanced architectures such as transitive routing over AWS PrivateLink, Transit Gateway, Site-to-Site VPN, and VPC Peering.
- Secure Client VPN deployments using route tables, subnet associations, and security groups.
- Troubleshoot connectivity issues with DNS resolution, logs, and packet captures.
- Optimize Client VPN performance and scalability for enterprise and hybrid environments.

Requirements
- Basic understanding of IP addressing, CIDRs, and subnetting
- Familiarity with AWS networking concepts like VPCs, public and private subnets
- Introductory knowledge of Linux command-line and basic Windows OS usage
- A free AWS account is recommended to follow along with hands-on labs
- No prior VPN experience required — all core concepts will be explained step by step

Description
Course Level: Intermediate

This course is designed for learners who already have a solid understanding of AWS fundamentals such as VPCs, subnets, EC2, route tables, and security groups. If you're comfortable navigating the AWS console and want to take your networking skills further, this course will guide you through advanced AWS Client VPN scenarios with hands-on labs.

We'll go beyond the basics and explore real-world configurations including Active Directory integration, multi-factor authentication (MFA), DNS resolution, route propagation, split-tunnel and full-tunnel setups, and transitive routing through PrivateLink and Transit Gateway. Each topic is presented step by step, so you can follow along in your own AWS environment.

By the end of the course, you'll be confident in designing, deploying, and securing AWS Client VPN across enterprise and hybrid environments. This is a clear step up from foundational knowledge, but it's still accessible without requiring deep expert-level specialization.
