Creating subdomains

If you are using a custom domain, you will need to set up subdomains to support the web and VDI portions of your portal.

Note

If you are deploying to the AWS GovCloud (US-West) Region, set up the web application and VDI subdomains in the commercial partition account hosting the domain public hosted zone.

1. Open the Route 53 console.

2. Find the domain you created and choose Create record.

3. Enter 'web' as the Record name.

4. Select CNAME as the Record type.

5. For Value, enter the link you received in the initial email.

6. Choose Create records.

7. To create a record for the VDC, retrieve the NLB address.

   1. Open the AWS CloudFormation console.

   2. Choose <environment-name>-vdc.

   3. Choose Resources and open <environmentname>-vdc-external-nlb.

   4. Copy the DNS name from the NLB.

8. Open the Route 53 console.

9. Find your domain and choose Create record.

10. Under Record name, enter vdc.

11. Under Record type, select CNAME.

12. For the NLB, enter the DNS.
