Ensure that you perform the following before configuring AWS plug-in using the VPC endpoint service:

Table: Prerequisites for using the VPC endpoint service

For Source Account configuration

For Cross Account configuration

Create an endpoint of AWS Security Token Service (STS).

Create an endpoint of STS service in source account (account where NetBackup Snapshot Manager is present).

Create other endpoint services as required. For more information on the AWS service list, see the 'AWS services that integrate with AWS PrivateLink' section in the AWS Documentation.

NetBackup Snapshot Manager must be present in the same region where plugin would be configured using VPC endpoint.

Creation of VPC endpoint based configuration is not required if the installed NetBackup Snapshot Manager is FIPS enabled
