Hosting a Web Server in AWS

LostBoY — Sat, 13 Jun 2020 15:42:52 GMT

Hello,

I want to host a web server in AWS behind a Checkpoint Firewall.. what i am unable to figure out is how do i get dedicated IPs for it from AWS... if i associate the server with an Elastic IP it will bypass the Firewall and will travel via Internet Gateway.

How can i map an Elastic IP from AWS to the web server hosted behind the Firewall

We have a video explaining how to do this on CheckMates: https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/CloudGuard-IaaS/AWS-Hosting-a-WebServer-behind-CloudGuard-video/td-p/74420
But as I recall, the second elastic IP is associated with the gateway on a secondary interface (no need to create it in Gaia OS but you do create it on the AWS side), and then you create a NAT rule for that secondary private IP.

I think you can use also VPC Ingress routing.
