Customizing EC2 Instance for Web Instance

Project agenda: To create a VPC and launch a web instance

Description: You are required to create a custom VPC and a subnet and attach the subnet to
the VPC. Additionally, create an internet gateway and route table, and launch an EC2
instance.

Tools required: AWS Management Console

Prerequisites: AWS account

Expected deliverables: EC2 web instance


Steps to be followed:
1. Create a custom VPC and enable DNS hostname
2. Create an internet gateway and attach it to the VPC
3. Create a subnet and a route table
4. Configure a route table
5. Launch the EC2 instance

Step 1: Create a custom VPC and enable DNS hostname


1.1 Open the AWS Management Console and search for VPC
1.2 Click on Create VPC

1.3 Enter my-custom-VPC as the VPC Name and 10.0.0.0/16 as the IPv4 CIDR
1.4 Click on Create VPC

The VPC has been created successfully.


1.5 Now, click on Edit VPC settings under Actions

1.6 Select Enable DNS hostnames under DNS settings, and then click on Save

DNS has been successfully enabled.


Step 2: Create an internet gateway and attach it to the VPC

2.1 Navigate to the Internet gateways page

2.2 Click on Create internet gateway


2.3 Enter the name my-custom-gateway and click on Create internet gateway

2.4 Click on Attach to VPC under Actions


2.5 Select my-custom-VPC and click on Attach internet gateway

The Internet gateway has been attached successfully.


Step 3: Create a subnet and a route table

3.1 Navigate to Subnets and click on Create Subnet

3.2 Choose my-custom-VPC and click on Create subnet


3.3 Enter my-subnet-custom as the Subnet name, choose the Availability Zone, set
10.0.0.0/16 as the IPv4 CIDR block, and click on Create subnet

The subnet has been created successfully.


3.4 Select the subnet, click on Actions, and choose Edit subnet settings

3.5 Choose the Enable auto-assign public IPv4 addresses checkbox and Save the settings
3.6 Navigate to the Route tables page and click on Create route table
3.7 Enter my-custom-route as the name, select my-custom-VPC in the VPC field, and create
the route table

3.8 Select the route table, click on Actions, and choose Edit routes
3.9 Click on Add route

3.10 Select Internet Gateway in the Target field


3.11 Click on Save changes

The edit route table has been successfully created.


Step 4: Configure a route table

4.1 In the Route tables dashboard, click on Edit edge associations under Actions

4.2 Select my-subnet-custom and click on Save associations


Step 5: Launch the EC2 instance

5.1 Navigate to the EC2 console and click on Instances


5.2 Click on Launch instances

5.3 Enter the name my-custom-web in the field


5.4 Click on the Amazon Linux option and select the SSD Volume Type as AMI

5.5 Select the instance type, such as t2.micro


5.6 Enter the Key pair name and click on the Create key pair button
5.7 Configure Network settings by selecting your VPC and an availability zone

5.8 Select the availability zone in the Subnet


5.9 Add inbound rules for HTTP and HTTPS
5.10 Click on Advanced details, enter the code in User data, and click on Launch instance
#!/bin/bash
yum update -y
yum install httpd -y
cd /var/www/html
echo "LAUNCH MINI WEBSITE" > index.html
service httpd start

5.11 After the instance is running, copy the IPv4 address and paste it into a browser to view
the mini website
By following these steps, you have successfully customized an EC2 instance for web
deployment within an Amazon Web Services (AWS) environment.
