Configuring an ECS worker VM for VNC access

To configure an ECS worker VM for VNC access:
  1. In the AliCloud web console, click Create Instance.

  2. Configure the ECS instance so that it does not use the same vSwitch as the FortiGate-VM. In this example, the ECS VSwitch was selected. There is no need to assign a public IP address since an ECS with a public IP address does not route through the FortiGate-VM.

  3. Confirm the configuration, then create the instance.
  4. Reset the VNC password and login password, then restart the instance.

  5. Connect to the VNC and log into Windows.

    The VM should be able to connect to the Internet through the FortiGate-VM.

    FortiOS should also provide detailed log information.
