Accessing an AWS environment

For the FortiGate Autoscale Tec Recipe, you will need the following:

  • AWS sign in link
  • IAM User w/ console access
  • Password for the IAM User
  • Two properly sized ITF’d BYOL licenses for Fortigate VM (recommend unlimited CPUs to avoid sizing confusion)

When you first login you will see the Console Home page.

Use the Search Box at the top to search for services such as EC2, VPC, Cloud Shell, etc.

When the results pop up, right click the name of the service and open the desired console in a new tab. This makes navigation easier.
