"I created an AWS Direct Connect public virtual interface, but it's still in the "Verifying" state."
"I created an AWS Direct Connect public virtual interface, but it's still in the "Verifying" state.Short descriptionWhen you create a public virtual interface, the Direct Connect team must approve the following information:The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Autonomous System Number (ASN), if it's a public ASN.The public peer IP addressesThe public prefixes that you plan to advertise over the virtual interfaceBefore the Direct Connect team approves this information, it must verify your ownership of the public IP prefixes and BGP ASN. To do this, the team confirms that the Regional Internet Registry (RIR) information belongs to the organization that's listed in your AWS account.ResolutionCheck If your public virtual interface is in the Verifying state for more than 72 hours, counting only weekdays. After this time elapses, check the root email address that's registered to your AWS account for an email from the Direct Connect team. This email states that the owner of the BGP ASN or one of your public IP prefixes doesn't match your account details.If the BGP ASN or an IP prefix doesn't match your account, then contact AWS Support or the Direct Connect team to resolve the mismatch. Refer to the most appropriate option for you, depending on whether you have an AWS Support plan. When you resolve the mismatch, the Direct Connect team approves your public virtual interface.Contact AWS SupportAsk the BGP ASN and IP prefix owner to send you a Letter of Authorization (LOA), written on company letterhead.
