Instance type to launch for the FortiGate-VMs in the Auto Scaling group. There are t2.small and compute-optimized instances such as c4 and c5 available with different vCPU sizes and bandwidths. For more information about instance types, see Instance Types.

A secret key for the FortiGate-VM instances to securely communicate with each other. Must contain numbers and letters and may contain special characters.

Maximum length is 128.

Changes to the PSK secret after FortiGate Autoscale for AWS has been deployed are not reflected here. For new instances to be spawned with the changed PSK secret, this environment variable will need to be manually updated.

A port number for FortiGate-VM administration.

Do not use the FortiGate reserved ports 443, 541, 514, or 703.

Minimum is 1. Maximum is 65535.

CIDR block for external admin management access.

0.0.0.0/0 accepts connections from any IP address. We recommend that you use a constrained CIDR range to reduce the potential of inbound attacks from unknown IP addresses.

The number of FortiGate-VM instances the BYOL Auto Scaling group should have at any time.

For High Availability in BYOL-only and Hybrid use cases, ensure at least 2 FortiGate-VMs are in the group.

For specific use cases, set to 0 for PAYG-only, and >= 2 for BYOL-only or hybrid licensing.

For BYOL-only and hybrid licensing deployments, this parameter must be at least 2. If it is set to 1 and the instance fails to work, the current FortiGate-VM configuration will be lost.

Maximum number of FortiGate-VM instances in the BYOL Auto Scaling group.

For specific use cases, set to 0 for PAYG-only, and >= 2 for BYOL-only or hybrid licensing. This number must be greater than or equal to the Minimum group size (BYOL).

The number of FortiGate-VM instances the PAYG Auto Scaling group should have at any time.

For High Availability in a PAYG-only use case, ensure at least 2 FortiGate-VMs are in the group.

For specific use cases, set to 0 for BYOL-only, >= 2 for PAYG-only, and >= 0 for hybrid licensing.

Minimum number of FortiGate-VM instances in the PAYG Auto Scaling group.

For specific use cases, set to 0 for BYOL-only, >= 2 for PAYG-only, and >= 0 for hybrid licensing.

For PAYG-only deployments, this parameter must be at least 2. If it is set to 1 and the instance fails to work, the current FortiGate-VM configuration will be lost.

Maximum number of FortiGate-VM instances in the PAYG Auto Scaling group.

For specific use cases, set to 0 for BYOL-only, >= 2 for PAYG-only, and >= 0 for hybrid licensing. This number must be greater than or equal to the Minimum group size (PAYG).
