StepDetails
Locate the Network Interfaces option on the EC2 dashboard and click on it.

Clicking on Network Interfaces opens the list of existing network interfaces.
Create a new interface.

Click on Create Network Interface at the top of the interface list.

This opens the interface creation window.

On this screen,

  • enter a description,
  • select the subnet the interface should be on (select the subnet to which your instance is to be connected),
  • allow AWS to automatically assign a private IP address or set a custom one from the subnet IP range, and
  • associate the interface with a security group (often the same as for the instance).

Click on Create when you are done. The new interface will appear in the overview list. There you can assign a name to the interface. Check that the interface is in state available.
