Sorry for the late reply.

RackConnect is a product that allows us to link cloud servers in our public Cloud environment with servers in a dedicated configuration.

We are currently using RackConnect 2.0 which achieves this by attaching the shared private network to the dedicated environment and configuring the cloud servers network stacks to use the dedicated load balancer and firewall as their default gateway, so that all traffic flows through the dedicated config. Incoming traffic (or traffic from the dedicated configuration) will be routed out to the Cloud servers by the dedicated load balancer.

RackConnect 3.0 (coming soon) will provide the same service, but the connection from the cloud servers to the dedicated configuration will be provided by Cloud Networks, our SDN product. This simplifies the configuration and provides additional security to the traffic.
