Prerequisites of AWS Virtual Form Factor

To facilitate the deployment of Prisma SD-WAN into AWS, Prisma SD-WAN provides two deployment options through the AWS Marketplace:
  • Deployment/insertion of Prisma SD-WAN into an existing VPC (brownfield).
  • Deployment of Prisma SD-WAN into a new VPC (greenfield).
The following requirements must be met to successfully deploy and configure Prisma SD-WAN in an AWS environment:
  • An AWS account with permissions to create, update, and delete Cloud Formation templates (CFT) and associated VPC resources.
  • The ability to provision at least one elastic IP in the AWS region where Prisma SD-WAN will be deployed.
  • An active subscription or proof of concept engagement with Prisma SD-WAN.
  • VPC deployment - A router instance already deployed or to be deployed in the VPC to be the
    Core
    router for Prisma SD-WAN to peer with (this is not part of the AWS Marketplace Cloud Formation template).
  • Transit gateway deployment – Layer 3 policies/routing configured for VPCs behind transit gateway to reach Prisma SD-WAN network(s). Router instance/setup is not part of the AWS Marketplace Cloud Formation template.
Prisma SD-WAN provides the virtual image in a VHD format per model type to facilitate the deployment of Prisma SD-WAN ION devices to an AWS environment.
