SAGEMAKER_MODEL_NO_VPC

What this check finds

A SageMaker model has no VpcConfig, so the containers serving it run outside any VPC you control.

Passing looks like: SageMaker models run inside a VPC.

How to fix it

Recreate the model with --vpc-config SecurityGroupIds=...,Subnets=... using private subnets, then update the endpoint that serves it.
