Deploying an Identity Router - Advanced SetupDeploying an Identity Router - Advanced Setup
If you want the opportunity to step through all of the possible options involved in deploying an identity router, perform this procedure.
Note: This topic applies to identity routers being deployed on the VMware, Hyper-V, and Amazon Web Services cloud platforms. It does not apply to deployments that use the embedded identity router in Authentication Manager. For information on that deployment, see Quick Setup - Connect SecurID Authentication Manager to the Cloud Authentication Service with an Embedded Identity Router.
If you want to set up your identity router as quickly as possible, without advanced options, see Getting Started with Quick Setup for the Cloud Authentication Service.
