Sophos-Astaro on Amazon EC2

Hi,

We managed a lot of hardware Sophos-Astaro, but now we'd like to create our first in the amazon cloud. But how?

I read this blogpost: You, Us, and the Amazon Cloud by Angelo Comazzetto

But i don't understand how it works exactly.
I know how can i creat a ec2 vm. i installed a utm9 on ec2 with "ami-b71713c3", but how can i control the server behind the firewall.

how can i build this szenario in the amazon cloud?

Ah ok, well amazon doesnt give you a public IP, they give you only private IP's, and then for EC2 they attach a hostname to it, (as the public IP can be shared then by many other machines, but they use hostname mapping to find your instance from the internet.

VPC is where you should spend all your educational efforts if you want more than a single interface machine which is used for demos or an easily avaialble webadmin. Without VPC, you cant have machines "behind" your UTM.
