Need a VPN solution

0

Trying to connect an on-prem machine to AWS so a contractor can access the machine remotely using SSH only. What all is needed for this to work? I was thinking maybe a EC2 to access, connect the on-prem machine to the VPC and then allow for the ssh connection between the EC2 and the on-prem? I haven;t messed with AWS in a while, so some direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

This sounds like a good use case for Client VPN, which will allow you to create a VPN endpoint associated with a VPC and allow clients to connect from anywhere.

You can use Authorization rules to restrict the traffic to the necessary IP's by adding Inbound access. to further strengthen, you can also use EC2 SG rules to restrict access just to the SSH. Link- https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpn/latest/clientvpn-admin/scenario-restrict.html
