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.
Deploy Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN using 1-Click Launch
Create a Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN instance, then deploy the SMC on your own hardware or in a separate instance on AWS.

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.
- 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.
  - Deploy Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN using 1-Click Launch
    Create a Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN instance, then deploy the SMC on your own hardware or in a separate instance on AWS.
    - Create a Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN instance using 1-Click Launch
      Configure and launch an instance of the Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN AMI using 1-Click Launch.
    - Deploy the SMC
      When the Secure SD-WAN Engine launch is complete, deploy the SMC.
    - Configure the SMC
      Configure the network connections and contact addresses for the SMC.
    - Create Single Engine elements
      Create a Single Engine element for each Secure SD-WAN engine that you deploy in the AWS cloud.
    - Connect the FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN Engine to the SMC
      Establish contact between the Secure SD-WAN Engine and the Management Server.
  - Deploy Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN in AWS when you have an existing SMC installation
    If you already have an existing SMC installation, you can deploy additional Secure SD-WAN Engines in AWS.
- 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.
