Your network environment must meet the requirements for access, discovery, and migration described in Access and Communication Requirements across Your Migration Network.
Create an account for VMware Cloud on AWS. Go to VMware Cloud on AWS website.
Configure the VMware DRS Cluster, networks, and resources for the account.
Use one of the following to ensure that the Migrate Server can access the VMware DRS Cluster, its host, and the target VMs:
Set up a corporate VPN between the premises (or source network) and the VMware Cloud on AWS location.
Provide Internet access for the source network and use the network public IP addresses for the VMware DRS Clusters, its member nodes, and target VMs.
