Automated Installation of SMA 8200v-Standalone Using CloudFormation on AWS

This section describes how to deploy the SMA 8200v-Standalone virtual appliance on AWS by using an AWS CloudFormation template (CFT). The template automates the deployment process by provisioning the appliance and the required AWS resources, including a dedicated VPC, routing configuration, a static IP pool for Connect Tunnel clients, and an optional IPsec site-to-site VPN connection to a remote gateway.

Use this deployment method when you want a consistent and repeatable installation experience or when you need to establish a site-to-site VPN connection as part of the initial deployment.

The CloudFormation template supports deployment of the SMA 8200v-Standalone appliance only. To deploy a CMS instance, use the manual deployment procedure described in Manual Installation of SMA 8200v-Standalone or CMS on AWS.
