Abstract
The present disclosure provides for automatic peering between virtual networks, such as virtual private clouds (VPCs). A VPC may be configured to operate in an 'auto-peering' mode, allowing for automatic peering to be turned on or off. When auto-peering is turned on, that VPC may seek connections with other VPCs, such as other VPCs matching one or more predefined policies. In addition, the particular VPC with auto-peering turned on may be open to accept connection requests from other VPCs matching one or more predefined policies. The policies for requesting connection may be the same as or different than the policies for accepting connection requests. According to some examples, the VPC may be set to a “listening” mode, in which it is open to peering with any other VPC that matches a predefined policy, but is not actively seeking to establish other connections.
