Set up Alibaba Cloud as a cloud provider
- In the Conductor, select the gear icon in the upper-right to access the Settings page.

- Enter your Alibaba Cloud access and secret keys, and choose an option for Alibaba Cloud route injection.

The Alibaba Cloud route injection setting determines how
new routes are added to the Alibaba Cloud routing table. The routes are for
traffic on your protected overlay network between protected devices and the Airwall Gateway.
Here are the recommended settings depending on your deployment details:
- If you are using a Airwall Relay, or want to manage routes on your own, set to
Disabled.Important: If your Airwall's subnet has a route table with existing or planned future routes, then do not set route injection to Individual traffic or All traffic. This removes these existing and future routes from the route table, retaining only routes created by Conductor.
- If you want to handle traffic for devices individually, set to Individual traffic.
- If you want one route to send all traffic to the overlay port on the Airwall Gateway, set to All traffic.Note: All traffic is effectively ‘full tunnel’ mode. With Individual traffic, you could add routes that send traffic around the Airwall Gateway.
- If you are using a Airwall Relay, or want to manage routes on your own, set to
Disabled.
- By Default region, select the Refresh icon to get the list of regions from the provider, and then select your default region.

Click Finish
Your Alibaba Cloud provider is displayed in the Configured Cloud Providers list.
