Overview
Looking for an instant, secure, and zero-configuration gateway to manage infrastructure access? This Amazon Machine Image (AMI) delivers a fully automated installation of the official Teleport Access Management suite running on a production-ready Ubuntu base, specifically engineered for rapid cloud deployments.
Built with cloud-native security principles, this image features an intelligent first-boot orchestration framework. Leveraging the latest AWS IMDSv2 security token protocols, the instance dynamically provisions your backend cluster parameters, automatically generates fresh local cryptographic keypairs, and injects a single-use administrative invitation link directly into your secure MOTD login prompt. No hardcoded credentials, no pre-shared certificates, and completely resilient against configuration drift.
Whether you need a centralized bastion host to unify SSH auditing, an identity-aware proxy for web applications, or an automated access control sandbox for globally distributed DevOps environments, this secure boilerplate eliminates setup friction and scales out in seconds.
Highlights
- Automated IMDSv2 first boot cloud configuration.
- Single use admin invite link via MOTD.
- Zero hardcoded secrets with systemd self-destruction.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Usage instructions
Important: Privilege Requirements This image utilizes a cloud-native orchestration service. To ensure the initialization scripts have the necessary permissions to configure system-level services and network settings, all initial setup operations should be performed with root privileges.
-
Access the Instance and Elevate Privileges: SSH to the instance using the key specified at launch. Once logged in as the 'ubuntu' user, immediately switch to the root user: sudo su -
-
Access the One-Time Registration URL: After elevating to root, you will see the customized message of the day (MOTD) banner on your terminal dashboard. Copy the unique registration URL provided in the banner: https://<YOUR_EC2_PUBLIC_IP>:3025/web/invite/<UNIQUE_TOKEN>
-
Complete Admin Setup in Browser: Copy that one-time invitation URL from your terminal, paste it into your local web browser, and follow the interactive wizard to set your 'admin' user password and register your mandatory 2FA (Two-Factor Authentication) device.
-
Verify Background Service Status: The initial automation helper script automatically self-destructs after completion to prevent re-initialization. You can manage and monitor your permanent Teleport engine using standard system control tools: systemctl status teleport
Note: By default, Teleport proxy and authentication layers run on port 3025. Ensure port 3025 is properly opened in your AWS Security Group inbound configurations.
