While deploying the ADC VPX on AWS, the VPX might prompt for the below permissions
These permissions are not mandatory. They are only required if customer is going to use High Availability or Backend Auto scaling feature.
It’s just a precaution. We are giving this notification to the User that if they didn’t configure them and in future they tried to use High Availability or Backend Auto scaling, then those feature might not work without these IAM permission.
If we are not using HA or Backend Auto scaling then they can ignore it.
Note: If we are looking to configure HA following permissions are required
“ec2:DescribeInstances”,
“ec2:DescribeNetworkInterfaces”,
“ec2:DetachNetworkInterface”,
“ec2:AttachNetworkInterface”,
”ec2:StartInstances”,
”ec2:StopInstances”,
”ec2:RebootInstances”,
“iam: SimulatePrincipalPolicy”
“iam: GetRole”
