# Linux Access Node Support for Amazon Web Services

You can configure a Linux instance to act as an access node for replication operations.

## Requirements

- One of the following AWS instance types:

  - RHEL 7.5

  - Amazon Linux instance using a 64-bit Arm processor

- Mono

- Commvault Virtual Server Agent package

- If you use an on-premises deployment of the CommServe system, configure a firewall as described in Configuring a Firewall to Install the Virtual Server Agent on a Cloud VM or Instance before you deploy the Linux access node.

## Deployment Options

From AWS Marketplace, you can deploy the Commvault Cloud Access Node BYOL to serve as a Linux access node and as the preferred access node for restores of Linux guest files. This AMI contains all the components that are required to support Linux operations in the Commvault environment.

For information, see the following:

- Deploying a Commvault Access Node from AWS Marketplace.

- The "Specify a Preferred Access Node for Linux Guest File Restores" section on the Modifying Settings for an Amazon EC2 Hypervisor page.
