Upgrading a DRG

Upgrade a Dynamic Routing Gateway (DRG) in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

A legacy DRG created before June 2021 (or possibly April 2021 depending on the region) must be upgraded before you can connect it to multiple VCNs, use it in cross-tenancy peering scenarios, or modify the internal routing policies. This upgrade process doesn't change the DRG's OCID. For details, see Before you Upgrade a DRG.

Note

You can't roll back the change to the DRG. Upgrading the DRG resets existing BGP sessions for both Site-to-Site VPN and FastConnect.

To monitor the upgrade process or determine if you might need to upgrade your DRG, follow the steps in Finding the DRG Upgrade Status.

    1. Open the navigation menu and click Networking. Under Customer connectivity, click Dynamic routing gateway.
    2. Under List Scope, select the compartment that contains the DRG that you want to upgrade.
      The page updates to display only the resources in that compartment. If you're not sure which compartment to use, contact an administrator. For more information, see Access Control.
    3. Click the name of the DRG.
    4. Click Upgrade DRG.
      This option is available only for legacy DRGs that can be upgraded.

      A message appears reminding you the action can't be reversed.

    5. Click Upgrade DRG.
    6. The upgrade occurs in the background. You can continue to make configuration settings while the upgrade is occurring. You're notified when the upgrade is complete.
    7. When the upgrade finishes, click Refresh page to gain access to the new DRG capabilities.

  • Use the network drg upgrade command and required parameters to upgrade a legacy DRG:

    oci network drg upgrade --drg-id  ocid  [OPTIONS]

    For a complete list of parameters and values for CLI commands, see the CLI Command Reference.

  • Run the UpgradeDrg operation to upgrade a legacy DRG.
