The collector VM requires a list of URLs to gain access to the AWS.

  • The AWS can be deployed in multiple regions. There are separate URLs associated with different regions. If you are unaware of the region or the service, have a wildcard entry for the URL such as *.amazonaws.com.
    Note: The wildcard entry does not work for the China region.

    If you want to give fine-grained access to separate URLs, there are 4 services based on the region:

  • Regions except GovCloud and China
    • ec2.<REGION>.amazonaws.com
    • logs.<REGION>.amazonaws.com
    • sts.<REGION>.amazonaws.com
    • iam.amazonaws.com
    GovCloud Region
    • ec2.us-gov-west-1.amazonaws.com
    • logs.us-gov-west-1.amazonaws.com
    • sts.us-gov-west-1.amazonaws.com
    • iam.us-gov.amazonaws.com
    China (Beijing) Region
    • ec2.cn-north-1.amazonaws.con.cn
    • logs.cn-north-1.amazonaws.com.cn
    • sts.cn-north-1.amazonaws.com.cn
    • iam.cn-north-1.amazonaws.com.cn
    You can use any of the following values for REGION based on the AWS region:
    Region Name Region
    US East (Ohio) us-east-2
    US East (N. Virginia) us-east-1
    US West (N. California) us-west-1
    US West (Oregon) us-west-2

    Asia Pacific (Seoul) ap-northeast-2
    Asia Pacific (Singapore) ap-southeast-1
    Asia Pacific (Sydney) ap-southeast-2
    Asia Pacific (Tokyo) ap-northeast-1
    Canada (Central) ca-central-1
    EU (Frankfurt) eu-central-1
    EU (Ireland) eu-west-1
    EU (London) eu-west-2
