AROVA appliances are configured to operate on the Google Cloud Internal Network. 

    • Users must use IAP to forward port 443 of AROVA to a dedicated port on a local machine and access the AROVA web UI by browsing to: https://127.0.0.1:<forwarded port number>/
    • External access to AROVA appliances is not configured by default and is not recommended for security purposes.


Example


gcloud compute start-iap-tunnel \

    jet-aro-vm-us-central1-us-south1 443        \

    --local-host-port=localhost:8443            \

    --zone=us-central1-a --project arova-project


    • The command starts the IAP tunnel to the AROVA jet-aro-vm-us-central1-us-south1 forwarding the AROVA port 443 to a local port 8443.
    • The web UI can then be accessed by browsing to https://localhost:8443/


Note: The command expects the user to already be logged into a gcloud session.
Use the command gcloud auth login to authorize it. Keep the gcloud command running while accessing the AROVA UI.
