# Elastic Network Interface (ENI)

It is a component in VPC that represents `virtual network card`. (Specific AZ) ENI consist of&#x20;

* One Elastic IP per private IPv4
* One Public IPv4
* One or more security group<br>

This component will be created and attached to EC2. You can create ENI and attach to EC on the fly for failover.
