Setting up a Grid Member as the API Proxy

To perform the API properties setup for a Cloud Platform Appliance to operate as the AWS API Proxy, ensure that the member has the Cloud Platform license installed and that the Grid Master delegates authority to the member.
Begin by following the steps in the previous procedures:

• Creating a Custom Zone for the API Proxy
  
• Configuring the Proxy API Zone

Then, do the following:

1. From the Cloud tab, select the Members tab -> member checkbox, and then click the Action icon and select Edit from the menu. Configuration done at the member level applies only to the Grid member.
2. In the Member Cloud API Properties editor, select the API Proxy tab, and then complete the following:
   • Port: Enter 8787 as the AWS API Proxy port number. You can change the default value, but it must match the value for your AWS VPC configuration.
   • API End point Mapping: Enter the complete FQDN for the AWS API Proxy in the API Proxy FQDN field. You use the matching CNAME alias from the zone configuration as the prefix for the FQDN, combined with the hostname for the AWS API Proxy. Example: ec2-us-west-1.api-proxy. Enter the complete AWS endpoint FQDN in the AWS End point FQDN. Example: ec2.us-west-1.amazonaws.com.
   • Enter more API End point Mapping instances if you want to use the AWS API Proxy with other AWS service endpoints. You must have a matching CNAME alias for each mapping.
3. Select the Enable the API Proxy for AWS on the Member checkbox.
4. Save the configuration.
