In addition to the system requirements of Access Manager components, ensure that you meet the following prerequisites:
An administrative account on AWS EC2.
The Access Manager installer (tarball) has been downloaded, extracted, and available for copying to the instances.
An SSH client to connect to the AWS EC2 instances from your local client machine.
By default, Linux and Mac provide access to OpenSSH through the terminal. On Windows, use PuTTY or install the Windows Subsystem for Linux feature (Windows 10 only) to install a Linux distribution environment.
