Configuring Security Group Rules
Scenarios
Similar to firewall, a security group is a logical group used to control network access. You can define access rules for a security group to protect the ECSs that are added to this security group.
- Inbound: Inbound rules allow external network traffic to be sent to the ECSs in the security group.
- Outbound: Outbound rules allow network traffic from the ECSs in the security group to be sent out of the security group.
For details about the default security group rules, see Virtual Private Cloud User Guide. For details about configuration examples for security group rules, see Security Group Configuration Examples.
Procedure
- Log in to the management console.
- Click
in the upper left corner and select your region and project. - Under Computing, click Elastic Cloud Server.
- On the Elastic Cloud Server page, click the name of the target ECS.
The page providing details about the ECS is displayed.
- Click the Security Groups tab, expand the information of the security group, and view security group rules.
- Click the security group ID.
The system automatically switches to the security group details page.
- On the Inbound Rules tab, click Add Rule. In the displayed dialog box, set required parameters to add an inbound rule.
You can click + to add more inbound rules.

- xxx.xxx.xxx.0/24 (IPv4 address range)
- 0.0.0.0/0 (all IPv4 addresses)
- sg-abc (security group)
If the source is a security group, this rule will apply to all instances associated with the selected security group.
