This update, available on second-generation Outposts racks, allows customers to configure multiple LGW routing domains each with independent route tables and BGP sessions. This separation supports different departments or business units sharing an Outposts rack while maintaining isolated network routing policies and enabling both Customer-owned IP and Direct VPC Routing modes concurrently.

The capability simplifies hybrid cloud network architectures by providing granular traffic control and secure segmentation within a single Outposts deployment. Configuration is manageable via AWS Console or CLI and does not incur additional costs, facilitating complex enterprise networking scenarios on-premises.
