A connection has the following properties, which you can customize when you create the policy:

9090
- **Region**: The geographical location in which the connection is created. It must be in the same region as the other Site-to-Site VPN resources (VPN gateways, customer gateways, routing policies) that it uses.
9191
- **Name** and (optionally) **tags**: A name and tags to identify the policy.
9292
- **VPN gateway**: The VPN gateway to use for the connection.
9393
- **Customer gateway**: The customer gateway to use for the connection. It must have at least one public IP type in common with the VPN gateway (IPv4 and/or IPv6).
94-
95-
Based on the gateways selected, the connection will establish either one or two VPN tunnels between them:
96-
- IPv4 tunnel: If both gateways have a public IPv4 address
97-
- IPv6 tunnel: If both gateways have a public IPv6 address
98-
- IPv4 and IPv6 tunnels: If both gateways have a public IPv4 and a public IPv6 address.
99-
94+
- **Tunnel details**: Based on the gateways selected, you may need to define how the connection should establish the VPN tunnel between them.
95+
- If both gateways have public IPv4 and public IPv6 addresses, you must explicitly choose the IP type (IPv4 or IPv6) to be used for the tunnel.
96+
- If the gateways share only one public IP type, that IP type will be used automatically for the tunnel.
97+
- A maximum of two connections can be created between the same gateway pair: one with an IPv4 tunnel and one with an IPv6 tunnel. Creating two connections/tunnels per gateway pair increases redundancy. Once an IPv4 tunnel is created, only one additional IPv6 tunnel can be established, and vice versa. No further connections are permitted beyond this limit.
98+

- **Routing policy(ies)**: For each traffic type (IPv4 and/or IPv6) to be routed over the connection, an associated routing policy must be attached (see [above](#routing-policy)).

IPv6 traffic can travel through a tunnel established between two public IPv4 addresses, and vice versa. You can still attach an IPv4 and an IPv6 routing policy to your VPN connection to allow routing of both types of traffic, even if it only has one VPN tunnel established between one type of public IP.

Having both types of public IP for both gateways types increases redundancy by providing two tunnels per connection, but it is not this in itself which determines the traffic types which can be routed.
