Use the table below as guidance on selecting an appropriate instance type. Choose an instance type that has at least the minimum CPU and RAM configuration according to the table below. For example, you could use either a c6g.2xlarge or a m4.2xlarge instance for the Teramid Management Server since both of them meet the minimum CPU and RAM requirements for it. |

Assigning an Elastic IP to Your Instance
We now need to assign an elastic IP to the instance. Otherwise, each time you restart the instance, it’s going to assign a new IP address causing the Teramind Agent to loose connection.
To assign an elastic IP, click the Elastic IPs (under NETWORK & SECURITY) from the left side bar. Then click the Allocate new address button on the right side of the screen.

We will use the default settings on the Allocate new address screen. Just press the Allocate button.

Click the Instance box and select the Teramind EC2 instance you created earlier.
Click the Associate button to continue.
Copying the Public DNS Address of Your Instance
Go back to the Instance menu. When the Instance State shows running, it means it’s ready for accepting connections.
Copy the Public DNS (IPv4) address for the instance you created and copy it or write it down.
Accessing the Teramind Server with SSH
Launch a SSH session. If you are on Windows, you can use a tool like Putty or a similar utility for the SSH. Make sure you have administrative access.
Type: ssh -i "key-pair" admin@
. Where, key-pair is the path to the key-pair file you downloaded in the Creating a New Key Pair step. For example, c:\users\user\download\pairkey.pem
.
Paste/type the Public DNS you copied in the previous step just after the @ symbol in the command prompt.
Press Enter.
The server will be ready in few minutes.
Getting Ready for the Next Step
Once the server is ready, you will see this message, ‘Welcome to Teramind!’. Under the message you will be given options to assign roles for the nodes/hosts, beginning with the Master role. However, before you can assign a role, you will need to finish the rest of the steps.
Keep this command window open as you will use it to finalize the setup at a later stage.
