Creating a Security Group

Function

A security group is a collection of access control rules for cloud instances, such as cloud servers, containers, and databases, that have the same security requirements and that are mutually trusted within a VPC. You can define different access control rules for a security group, and these rules are then applied to all the instances added to this security group.

Constraints

By default, a security group only allows instances in it to communicate with each other.
