- The following resource types can be attached to a Private Network:
  - Instances
  - Elastic Metal servers
  - Apple silicon (Mac mini)
  - Load Balancers.
  - Public Gateways
  - Managed Databases for PostgreSQL and MySQL
  - Managed Databases for Redis™ (only during the process of creating the database)

  - Serverless Functions and Containers (egress traffic only)
- Private Networks are not supported on some legacy Instance offers which have reached EOL, e.g. `VC1`, `START1` and `X64-*GB`. Note that all Instance offers in the [current product catalogue](https://www.scaleway.com/en/pricing/?tags=compute) are supported.
