VNC server should be configured to listen only for connections from the localhost. Connect to the VNC server through an SSH tunnel only to allow a secured communication.
AWS LOAD BALANCED SSH BASTION SERVERS PASSWORD
VNC server should be hardened with a password of good strength. Associate an Elastic IP address to the SSH Proxy server to have static public IP address.Ĭonfigure the VNC server in the SSH Proxy instance. SSH private key required for accessing instances in the private subnet and the instance where SSH proxy is running, should not be stored in the VPC but on the client only. Open only SSH port 22 for this instance and select an AWS instance type with good performance and memory. SSH proxy instance should be hardened and secured server. For more information to create Elastic IP address, see Working with Elastic IP Addresses.Įnsure that you meet the requirements listed in System Requirements.Ĭreate security groups as mentioned in Configuring Security Groups.

For more information to create a NAT gateway, see NAT Gateways.Įlastic IP addresses are public static IP addresses which should be assigned to the instance running SSH proxy and NAT gateway. NAT gateway is required for those instances which are in the private subnet to download operating system updates. For more information to create and attach Internet gateways with VPC, see Internet Gateways.įor more information to create a route table, see Route Tables. Internet gateway is required to enable SSH connection to SSH proxy as shown in Figure 1-1. For more information, see VPC and Subnet. SSH access to the instances in the private subnet should be done via SSH proxy in the public subnet. As shown in Figure 1-1, any application which is accessing eDirectory, should be deployed in the same private subnet.

eDirectory should be deployed in the private subnet. You can view or edit these items as follows:Īs part of the VPC creation, two subnets will be created a public and a private subnet. IMPORTANT:Creating a VPC using Start VPC Wizard creates two Subnets, Internet gateways, and Route table and NAT gateway for the VPC.
