<div>I have completed this before in as over a megaport direct connect. Forgive me if I get the aws terms wrong we don't have an instance anymore</div>
<div>I remember adding a /30 on the direct connect</div>
<div>Then adding in the route table a default route out the vgw for the direct connect whilst removing the igw as it wouldn't be needed.</div>
<div>Happy to discuss off list if you want. I have had it working even if that doesn't make sense :)</div>

<div dir="ltr">Yup.. all that part is good.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>But, with an EC2 instance... how do you tell it to go out the Direct Connect as a default gateway.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am BGP sending a default gateway, and the route table seems fine, and AWS is sending me the route.....</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>But.. how does the server know where to go?</div>

Does anyone have any experience using AWS EC2 with public (their own)<br>
addressing using a Direct Connect to get access to the internet.<br>
<br>
My VPC, routing everything seems fine... BGP coming through, but I<br>
can't get to the EC2 test instance and DHCP doesn't seem to have a way<br>
for me to specify the default gateway... <br>
<br>
Just a bit mind boggling.<br>
