How-To: Running the Snow Extender on Amazon Web Services (AWS) with Application Load Balancing (ALB)

Title

This article provides a scenario for running the Snow Extender on Amazon Web Services (AWS) with Application Load Balancing (ALB).

Scenario:

The Snow Extender should be running on an Amazon Web Services (AWS) EC2 instance with an ALB (Application Load Balancer) running web services with a certificate installed configured on port 443.
The Snow Agent would have the ALB Domain Name System (DNS) configured as an endpoint and will be sending the snowpack to it.
The ALB then authenticates the certificate and passes the snowpack file through to the Snow Extender on AWS EC2.
In other words, the ALB would be similar to an incoming DMZ part before the Snow Extender.

Pre-requisites:

Implementation:

You will need to use ACM (AWS Certificate Manager) and configure the correct certificates and DNS entries. Review the following AWS link for more information: AWS Certificate Manager Resources | Certificate Management | Amazon Web Services
