Step 5: Add a Security Group Rule
Scenarios
After you create a security group, you can add rules to the security group. A rule applies either to inbound traffic or outbound traffic. After you add cloud resources to the security group, they are protected by the rules of the group.
- Inbound rules control incoming traffic to cloud resources in the security group.
- Outbound rules control outgoing traffic from cloud resources in the security group.
Procedure
- Log in to the management console.
- Click
in the upper left corner and select the desired region and project.
- On the console homepage, under Network, click Virtual Private Cloud.
- In the navigation pane on the left, choose Access Control > Security Groups.
- On the Security Groups page, locate the target security group and click Manage Rule in the Operation column to switch to the page for managing inbound and outbound rules.
- On the Inbound Rules tab, click Add Rule. In the displayed dialog box, set required parameters.
