I've been learning about Amazon AWS EC2/VPCs and after multiple videos and articles I've got a VPC up an running with private/public subnets, however, I find myself confused on one key point... how do I connect to new instances deployed in a private subnet, in order to set them up? If I deploy it to the private subnet straight away, I cannot connect to it and setup the instance.

There are multiple ways this can be achieved. A lot of people use a bastion host. This provides an instance you can SSH or RDP in to then SSH or RDP to your target instance in a private subnet from there. You could also set up a VPN server. This is going to be highly dependent on what type of setup works best for you.

Setting up a VPN is exactly what I need to do. Thanks – Cazineer Jun 16 '18 at 19:56
