Create a network function group in an AWS Cloud WAN policy version - AWS Network Manager

Create a network function group in an AWS Cloud WAN policy version

The following steps guide you through configuring a core network for a policy version using the Policy versions link on the AWS Network Manager console. There are no prerequisites for creating a network functions group. For more information, about network function groups, see Network function groups.

To route traffic using a network function group
  1. Access the Network Manager console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/networkmanager/home/.

  2. Under Connectivity choose Cloud WAN.

  3. On the Global networks page, choose the global network ID that for the core network you want to create a policy version for, and then choose Core network.

  4. In the navigation pane, choose Policy versions.

  5. Choose Create policy version.

  6. In Choose policy view mode, choose Visual editor.

  7. Choose Network function groups.

  8. Choose Create.

  9. Enter a Name identifying this function, and then provide an optional Description.

  10. If the attachment association requires acceptance, choose Require acceptance.

    Note

    An attachment can be associated only with a segment or a network functions group, but not both. You can't associate an attachment to a network functions group if that attachment is already associated with a segment.

  11. Once you've created the network function group, you can create a service insertion segment action that routes your network functions from source segments to destination segments using this network function group. For more information on creating a segment action, see "Service insertion" in Add a segment action in an AWS Cloud WAN core network policy version.
