After your SDDC is deployed and configured in VMware Cloud on AWS, you must configure firewall rules for secure communication.
- Log in to the VMC Console.
- On the Networking & Security tab, click Gateway Firewall.
- Go to the required tab and ensure that the following firewall rules are configured.
Firewall Rule | Source | Destination | Service/Applied To |
---|---|---|---|
Go to the Management Gateway tab and add an inbound rule that allows appliance to communicate with the vCenter Server over HTTPS. | Any or appliance IP address | vCenter | HTTPS |
Go to the Management Gateway tab and add an outbound rule that allows the vCenter Server to communicate with the appliance. | vCenter | Any or appliance IP address | Any |
Go to the Compute Gateway tab and add an uplink rule that allows appliance and VMs to communicate with the Carbon Black Cloud. | Any | Any | Any |
Note: You can narrow down rule for specific URL based on network settings of your organization. Make sure appliance has external connectivity with the
Carbon Black Cloud.
