  • Last updated on

The Barracuda Firewall Control Center for AWS is available as a Bring Your Own License (BYOL) image from the AWS Marketplace. Two models are available. The VCC610 supports two ranges and unlimited clusters, the VCC400 one range and one cluster. The Control Center can manage both on-premises hardware and virtual firewalls, as well as CloudGen Firewalls in the public cloud. It is not possible to use the AWS Control Center in a high availability cluster.
