Module 1: AWS IAM SetupΒΆ

AWS will be used as the platform to deploy your Jenkins server and F5 BIG-IP and backend servers.

Reference: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide/automation-jenkins.html

Instructions:

  1. Access the IAM console in AWS > Users > Add User
  2. Specify name > access type as Programmatic Access
  3. For permissions, select Attach existing policies directly and choose AdministratorAccess
  4. Review, then create user. Be sure to copy the Access and Secret keys to a safe location before moving to the next step

This completes AWS IAM setup. You now have an AWS user that will be used to programmatically create resources.
