Project firewall

Create project security groups and reuse them on VM WAN.

Create security group in Datacenter → Firewall

Before you begin

  • Admin or Superadmin access to the project.
  • Group name: Latin characters, maximum 15 characters in the portal.

Steps

  1. Open Datacenter → Firewall.
  2. Click Create group and enter a short name.
  3. Add inbound or outbound rules to the group.
  4. On each VM, open VM → Firewall and click Insert Security Group.
  5. Update rules in one place when they apply to many VMs.

Watch out

A security group takes effect on a VM only after you insert it into that VM's firewall on WAN (net0).
