There are some prerequisites to be aware of before following the steps in this document:

  • Users should be familiar with the operation of AWS.
  • If not already done, create a Progress ID at the registration page: Create a Progress ID
  • Licensing in an AWS VPC does work without internet access when using the private IP address but only if Offline Licensing is used during the deployment.
  • Alternate default gateway support is not permitted in a cloud environment.
  • Instance metadata: MOVEit WAF on AWS currently only supports Instance Metadata Service Version 1 (IMDSv1). If IMDSv2 is enforced on the instance, MOVEit WAF cannot obtain a license from the Progress licensing server.
