How Do I Configure a Security Group to Enable Access to TaurusDB Instances?

  • When you attempt to connect to a TaurusDB instance through a private network, check whether the ECS and TaurusDB instance are in the same security group.
    • If yes, they can communicate with each other by default. No security group rule needs to be configured.
    • If no, you need to configure security group rules for them, separately.
      • TaurusDB instance: Configure an inbound rule for the security group associated with the TaurusDB instance.
      • ECS: The default security group rule allows all outbound data packets. In this case, you do not need to configure a security group rule for the ECS. If not all outbound traffic is allowed in the security group, you may need to configure an outbound rule for the ECS to allow all outbound packets.
  • When you attempt to connect to a TaurusDB instance through an EIP, configure an inbound rule for the security group associated with the TaurusDB instance.
