How To Test Connectivity Through The Private Endpoint

For Aura Enterprise users, after you have made your Private Link endpoint connected to your Aura PrivateLink Endpoint Service, you can use the methods listed below to do your Private Link connectivity test.

1. Utilize the nslookup command to confirm whether the Fully Qualified Domain Names (FQDNs) of your Aura instances are directed to the IP address of the PrivateLink endpoint (usually represented by an internal IP address, such as 10.x.x.x).

nslookup <dbid>.production-orch-<orchestra>.neo4j.io

2. Use curl from a VM instance or a container located in the related VPC network. 

curl  https://<dbid>.production-orch-<orchestra>.neo4j.io

3. Use nc commands on one of your VM instances or container located in the related GCP Project VPC network, and make sure you get a successful response for all commands

nc -vz <dbid>.production-orch-<orchestra>.neo4j.io 443
nc -vz <dbid>.production-orch-<orchestra>.neo4j.io 7687
nc -vz <dbid>.production-orch-<orchestra>.neo4j.io 7474

4. On Windows, you can get Netcat here (https://nmap.org/download.html ) or use PowerShell

Test-NetConnection <dbid>.production-orch-<orchestra>.neo4j.io -Port 7687
Test-NetConnection <dbid>.production-orch-<orchestra>.neo4j.io -Port 7474
Test-NetConnection <dbid>.production-orch-<orchestra>.neo4j.io -Port 443
