  6. (Optional) Turn on the Use FM to launch Proxy toggle to launch the GigaVUE V Series Proxy using GigaVUE‑FM.

    Note:  You can use GigaVUE V Series proxy if GigaVUE‑FM cannot directly reach the GigaVUE V Series Nodes (management interface) directly over the network. GigaVUE V Series Proxy is a optional component.

    1. From the Image drop-down list, select the required image.
    2. From the Size drop-down list, select the instance size.
    3. For Number of Instances, specify the required number of instances.
