Hello,

Is it possible to collect the software inventory of the AWS EC2 instance in Flexnet Manager Suite 2020R2 (on-prem)? If yes, what all steps are involved in this process?

Thanks!

So is it similar to the on-prem installation of the agent on the EC2 instance as well? If yes then, I believe we just then need to open ports for this communication. Correct?

Yes. you have to open firewall port between beacon and agent.

You can find very detailed documentation on the topic of collecting Inventory data from Amazon EC2 in the 'Amazon Connector' chapter of the 'Inventory Adapters and Connectors Reference' document.
