In your FTDv setup, you should configure appropriate VPCs, subnets, route tables, and security groups in your AWS environment. Here are some steps you need to follow:
1. **Create a VPC:** Create a virtual private cloud (VPC) dedicated to your AWS account and specify the IP address range during this process.
2. **Add an Internet Gateway:** Connect your VPC to the internet by adding an internet gateway. This enables you to route traffic for IP addresses outside of your VPC.
3. **Add Subnets:** Start adding subnets to your VPC. These subnets are used to group instances according to security and operational needs. Make sure to configure separate subnets for management traffic and data traffic.
4. **Add a Route Table:** Attach a route table to the Internet gateway you configured for your VPC. This will help you define routes for traffic going to different destinations.
5. **Create a Security Group:** Create a security group and set rules specifying allowed protocols, ports, and source IP ranges. This security group controls inbound and outbound traffic for the instances in your VPC.
6. **Create Network Interfaces:** For the FTDv instances, create network interfaces using static IP addresses or DHCP. Configure separate interfaces for management traffic and data traffic.
7. **Create Elastic IPs:** Reserve public IP addresses for remotely accessing the FTDv instances. Elastic IPs are used for both management access and accessing other instances in the VPC.
8. **Deploy the FTDv Instance:** Launch the FTDv instance using the AWS console, select the appropriate instance type, and configure the network interfaces and security groups. Make sure to select the correct VPC and subnets.
After deploying the FTDv instances, you can manage them using the Secure Firewall Management Center or the Secure Firewall Device Manager. These management tools will help you configure and monitor the FTDv instances.
