Security groups act as virtual firewalls for ECM instances. Each ECM instance must be associated with at least one security group. If you haven't created a security group when creating an ECM instance, Tencent Cloud provides two templates (Open all ports and Open ports 22, 80, 443, and 3389 and ICMP protocol) for quick security group creation. For more information, see Security Group.
This document describes how to create a security group in the ECM console.
Directions
1. Log in to the ECM console and select Edge Network > Security Group on the left sidebar.
2. On the Security Group management page, click Create.
3. In the Create ECM Security Group pop-up window, configure the options as shown below:
