SSM agent Windows takes around 30mn to register to the AWS System manager for custom AMI's #380

Hi, When creating a new Windows EC2 instance based on a custom AMI, it takes around 30mn for the machine to show up in the AWS system manager. Is there a way to speed things up? like a running script that fasts forward SSM agent registration. Thank you,

I have found the issue, the instance was based on a custom image that I have created from another image in a different VPC, so during the custom IAM creation the routing tables were set with the wrong paths/gateways, the 30mn delay was the time for the routing table to get updated properly with the new config.
