Updating an Internet Gateway
Update an internet gateway (IGW) in a Virtual Cloud Network (VCN) in Networking.
You can't change the display name or disable or enable an internet gateway by using the Console, but you can do both using the CLI or API. If the gateway is disabled, that means no traffic flows to or from the internet even when a route rule allows that traffic.
You can associate a route table with the internet gateway, and also change its tags. After a route table is associated with a gateway, the gateway must always have a route table associated with it.
- Open the navigation menu , select Networking, and then select Virtual cloud networks.
- Select the name of the VCN that you're interested in.
- Under Resources, select Internet Gateway.
-
Select the the Actions menu (
) for the internet gateway, and then select Associate Route Table.
- Select a route table, changing the compartment as needed to find the one that you want. Then, select Associate Route Table.
