Adding Rules to a Security Group

You can add rules for inbound flows to security groups. You can also add rules for outbound flows to security groups for use in a Net.

Security group rules let you allow flows in a specified protocol and on specified ports, coming from either a single IP or a range of IPs (public, private, or public IP), or another security group. When you add a rule to a security group, it is automatically applied to all the virtual machines (VMs) the security group is associated with.

Adding Rules to a Security Group Using Cockpit v2

In the Security Groups dashboard, click the name of the security group to which you want to add rules.
The security group details panel appears.
Click Create Inbound Rules to add an inbound rule, or, if applicable, click the Outbound rules tab and then on Create Outbound Rules.
The CREATE INBOUND RULES or CREATE OUTBOUND RULES dialog box appears.
To define a rule, choose the following information:
- Service: The service (for example, SSH or HTTP). For more information about available services, see About Security Group Rules.
- Protocol: The IP protocol (tcp, udp, icmp, or Any), if applicable.
- Port/ICMP: The port numbers or ICMP types, if applicable. This can be:
  - One or more values, separated by semicolons
  - A range of values, separated by a dash
  - For TCP and UDP: a single port number between 0 and 65535, or a range of port numbers.
  - For ICMP: a single type number between 0 and 255, or a type number and code number, or -1 to indicate all ICMP types.
    
    Avoid opening flows on all ports (1-65535), as it prevents you from effectively controlling them. Only open flows on the ports you need.
- IP range/Security group: The target of the rule. This can be:
  - An IP in CIDR notation
  - A range of IPs in CIDR notation
  - Another security group, specified by ID or name
    
    If the button My IP does not work, check if a browser extension is blocking scripts on the page.
To create multiple rules at once, click Add Rule and repeat Step 3.
Click Create.
The rule or rules are added to the security group.

Adding Rules to a Security Group Using OSC CLI

The CreateSecurityGroupRule command adds one or more rules to a security group.
Use the SecurityGroupId parameter to specify the security group for which you want to create a rule.
Use the Flow parameter to specify if you want an inbound rule or an outbound rule.

An inbound rule allows the security group to receive traffic:

Either from a specific IP range (IpRange parameter) on a specific port range (FromPortRange and ToPortRange parameters) and specific protocol (IpProtocol parameter).
Or from another specific security group (SecurityGroupAccountIdToLink and SecurityGroupNameToLink parameters).

(Net only) An outbound rule works similarly but allows the security group to send traffic rather than receive traffic.

Alternatively, you can use the Rules parameter to add several rules at the same time.

The modifications are effective as quickly as possible, but a small delay may occur.
By default, traffic between two security groups is allowed through both public and private IPs. To restrict traffic to private IPs only, contact our Support team at support@outscale.com.

For more information, see About Security Group Rules.

The specified inbound rules are added to the security group.

(VPC only) Adding Outbound Flows Rules to a Security Group

To add one or more rules for outbound flows, use the authorize-security-group-egress command following this syntax:
