How do I install it within my private VPC? Where I need to go to start it?
You would need to install an EC2 instance in the VPC and then install the Gateway on this EC2 instance?
Exactly. My problem is I don't even know where to start doing that. When I create an Windows Base 2019 instance in EC2 in the VPC, I can't connect to it... What do I need to do to install the Gateway on this EC2 instance?
You would need to chat to your AWS people who can get that installed and configured for you.
You would then RDP to the EC2 instance and install the gateway after downloading it.
