Deploy FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN in AWS
- Introduction
  You can deploy Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud to provide VPN connectivity, access control, and inspection for services in the AWS cloud.
  - Licensing models for Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN in the AWS cloud
    Two licensing models are supported for Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN in the AWS cloud.
  - Considerations for deploying Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN in the AWS cloud
    There are some additional considerations when you deploy Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN in the AWS cloud.
  - Use cases for Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN in the AWS cloud
    These deployment examples show how you can use Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN in the AWS cloud environment.
    - Remote access connectivity
      You can use Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN as a cloud edge gateway to connect your remote users to Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC).
    - Corporate data center connectivity
      Physical and virtual Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN gateways securely connect your corporate on-premises data centers to your virtual ones in AWS VPCs.
    - VPN CloudHub
      Securely connect remote branch offices using the AWS VPN CloudHub, operating on a simple hub-and-spoke model, for primary and backup connectivity between remote offices.
    - VPC-to-VPC routing between regions
      Create secure VPN tunnels between two or more Secure SD-WAN Engines to connect VPCs across multiple AWS regions.
- Deploying Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN in the AWS cloud
  You can deploy Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN in the AWS cloud using 1-Click Launch or using Manual Launch when you have an existing SMC installation.
- Configure HA
  After you have deployed two Secure SD-WAN Engines, configure high availability (HA).
- AWS Transit Gateway
- Managing Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN Engines using the SSM Agent
  You can use the AWS Systems Manager Agent (SSM Agent) to manage Secure SD-WAN Engines that are deployed in the AWS cloud using the same AWS tools that are used for other AWS resources.
- Maintenance
  All configuration information for the Secure SD-WAN Engines is stored on the Management Server component of the SMC. After deployment, you can manage Secure SD-WAN Engines in the AWS cloud using the Management Client component of the SMC in the same way as other Secure SD-WAN Engines.
- Troubleshooting in the AWS console
  You can use diagnostics information provided by the AWS console for troubleshooting.
- Example deployment
  This example shows a deployment in an example network environment.
- Configuring VPC ingress routing for an Internet gateway
  VPC ingress routing can direct all traffic from an edge location, such as the Internet or a VPN gateway, through the Secure SD-WAN Engine before reaching its final destination. These instructions describe how to configure VPC ingress routing for an Internet gateway.
- Configuring a route-based VPN to AWS with BGP
  The configuration for this scenario includes a virtual private cloud (VPC) with a public subnet and private subnets. A virtual private gateway enables communication with your own on-premises network over an IPsec VPN tunnel. All routing configuration is done using BGP.
- Find product documentation
  In the Forcepoint Customer Hub, you can find information about a released product, including product documentation, technical articles, and more.
