Scenario: Create an Amazon Reservation for a Proof of Concept Environment
Because you used an SSH tunnel to temporarily establish network-to-Amazon VPC connectivity for your
proof of concept environment, you have to add custom properties to your Amazon reservations to ensure
the Software bootstrap agent and guest agent run communications through the tunnel.
Network-to-Amazon VPC connectivity is only required if you want to use the guest agent to customize
provisioned machines, or if you want to include Software components in your blueprints. For a production
environment, you would configure this connectivity officially through Amazon Web Services, but because
you are working in a proof of concept environment, you configured a temporary SSH tunnel instead.
Using your fabric administrator privileges, you create a reservation to allocate your Amazon Web Services
resources and you include several custom properties to support the SSH tunneling. You also configure
the reservation on the same region and VPC as your tunnel machine.
