Audit a database instance in a classic network

Procedure

1. Obtain the instance ID of the VPC where the Database Audit system is located.

   1. Log on to the Database Audit console.

      For instructions, see Log on to the Database Audit console.

   2. In the navigation pane, choose System > Agent Management.

   3. Click the Agent Installation tab to view the instance ID of the VPC where the Database Audit system is located.

      In the information bar at the top of the page, the VPC ID of This Instance field displays the VPC ID of your Database Audit system. The ID starts with vpc-.

2. Create a ClassicLink connection from the ECS instance in the classic network to the VPC where the Database Audit system is located.

   1. Enable ClassicLink for the VPC where the Database Audit system is located. For instructions, see Enable ClassicLink.

      Note

      For this step, use the VPC ID that you obtained in Step 1.

   2. Establish a ClassicLink connection from the ECS instance in the classic network. For instructions, see Establish a ClassicLink connection.

      When you establish the ClassicLink connection, use the VPC ID from Step 1. In the Link To VPC dialog box, select the target VPC, such as vpc-bp***, from the VPC drop-down list, and then click OK.

   3. Optional: If the VPC CIDR block is 192.168.0.0/16, add a route on the ECS instance in the classic network that directs traffic destined for 192.168.0.0/16 to the private network interface.

      For more information, see Limitations.

      Note

      This step is required only if the VPC CIDR block is 192.168.0.0/16.

3. Manually install the Database Audit agent on the ECS instance in the classic network.

   • If the ECS instance runs Linux, follow the instructions in the Download the agent and install it manually section of Install an agent.

   • If the ECS instance runs Windows, see Manually install an agent.

4. Verify the agent deployment.

   1. Log on to the Database Audit console.

      For instructions, see Log on to the Database Audit console.

   2. In the navigation pane, choose System > Agent Management.

   3. Click the Agent Management tab and verify that the private IP of the ECS instance is listed.

      If the private IP of the ECS instance is displayed in the Agent IP column, the connection is successful.
