Create an instance with the imported AMI image

The Instance Wizard specifies all the launch parameters required for launching an instance. Where the launch instance wizard provides a default value, you can accept the default or specify your own value, like choosing the AMI you created in the last step, configuring your own network interfaces and specifying the security group.

To create an instance with an imported image:

1. In the AWS console go to Instances > Instances.
2. Click Launch Instances. Instance wizard opens.

   

3. In Step 1: Choose an Amazon Machine Image (AMI), click My AMIs and then select the image you just created, then click Next.

   

4. In Step 2: Chose an Instance Type, select the instance type. For more information, see Elastic network interfaces.

   

5. In Step 3: Configure Network settings and Security Group, click Edit.
   1. Select 2 to 6 NICs. You must configure at least two NICs.
   2. Click Add network interface to add more network interfaces

   Make sure ports 22, 443, 8443 are open in FortiDeceptor port1. This allows the FortiDeceptor Manager to communicate with the cloud clients.

6. In Configure storage, configure the storage settings and click Launch Instance.
