The following figure illustrates one typical networking mode, instances have two interfaces, one interface is connected to net3 for heartbeat or data replication, the other interface is connected to net1 or net2 to provide service. There is different external network in different region to support service redundancy in case of region level failure.

Instance1 can ping instance2 through the IP address in the net3, and vice versa.
Note: Not all images will bring up the second nic, so you can ssh into instance1 or instance2, use ifconfig -a to check whether all NICs are created, and bring up all NICs if necessary.
