* In the AWS Management Console you've looked at EC2 so far. Now open the VPC Management Console. As most things in AWS: this interface is overwhelming at first. Once you go through it several times you'll get more comfortable with it.
* Click "Your VPCs". Note that there is a default one there which was created automatically with your account. Click "'''Create VPC"'''.
** Set the name to vpc-ops345
** Set the CIDR block to 10.3.45.0/24 (larger than the subnet you will create later)

* Now create a subnet in your new VPC: click on Subnets (note all the default ones, make sure you dont forget to name yours or else you'll quickly get confused). Click "'''Create subnet"'''.
** Pick vpc-ops345
** Set the name to subnet-ops345
