The automatic provisioning of a CloudGuard Security Gateway is achieved by providing the Security Management Server credentials, so that it can connect to the AWS cloud environment in which the Security Gateway is deployed, and a configuration template to apply on the Security Gateway. Then, the CloudGuard Security Gateway is tagged so that the Management Server can identify it, create a trusted connection with it, and automatically provision it.

For more information on how to deploy a Security Management Server and how to configure it to automatically provision CloudGuard Security Gateways deployed in AWS, see sk130372.
