Security Firewall Rule

Firewall rules allow you to permit or deny connections to or from a virtual machine (vm) based on the configuration you specify. When you create a firewall rule, you define a set of components that determine what the rule does. Components allow you to target specific traffic types, based on traffic protocols, destination ports, sources, and destinations.

Before creating a Security Firewall Rule, you must first have an Instance. If you don't have an Instance yet, you can deploy an Instance in Create VM Instance

Here are the steps to create a Security Firewall Rule:

• On your Service Portal AI, select the Security menu then click the Create Security button.

• To create a new Security Firewall Rule, complete the form as shown below.

• The following table describes each field in the Create Security form.

Column	Description
Name	Name of your security.
Description	Description of the security configuration.
Inbound Rule	Define the traffic allowed to the instance on which ports and from which sources.
Outbound Rule	Define the traffic allowed to leave the instance on which ports and to which destinations.
Applied to Instances	Select the instances to which this security rule will be applied.

• After reviewing the field descriptions above, follow the steps below to create a Security Firewall Rule.

• Fill in the Create Security form by entering the name of the security configuration in the Name field and entering the description in the Description field.
