Working with Domain VPCs
1452+
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1453+
1454+
The functionality of domain VPCs allows operators to aggregate multiple
1455+
Network Tiers from distinct users on the same VPC, reducing the number of virtual
1456+
routers necessary in the environment, and consequently, decreasing the
1457+
amount of public IP addresses consumed. All Network Tiers added to the VPC share
1458+
the same VR, but each one has their own broadcast domain and features
1459+
implemented by the VPC, such as DHCP, NAT, and so on.
1460+
1461+
In order to utilize this functionality, a new Network Tier must be included to an
1462+
existing VPC by inputing the respective data for the account and the VPC
1463+
on the **'createNetwork'** API. It is important to note that, in order
1464+
for a Network Tier of a different account to be created on the VPC, the account
1465+
that creates the Network Tier must have access to both the account that owns the
1466+
VPC and the account that owns the Network Tier. The owner of the VPC must also
1467+
have access to the account that owns the Network Tier, however, the opposite
1468+
is not required.
