The Security Group

<p>Security group is a virtual firewall with functions of status detection and packet filtration. It can be used for configuring the network access control of one or more instances. It is an important method for network security isolation, dividing security domains on the cloud. Instances in the same security group, by default, are connected with each other in private networks, while instances in different security groups, by default, are not. But mutual access between two security groups can be authorized. The security group function of Ping An Cloud&rsquo;s BMS is only needed when instances in a VPC network want to access instances in different VPC networks, or when BMS instances want to access ECS ones.</p> <p>At present, the security group function of BMS is available only by customers in regions of South China 1. If you need security groups in other regions, you can submit a ticket and apply for manual help from our technicians. The following table shows how to configure security group rules to achieve mutual access of ECS and BMS in different regions.</p> <table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="background-color:#ededed; vertical-align:top"> <p><strong>Regions</strong></p> </td> <td style="background-color:#ededed; vertical-align:top"> <p><strong>Network Domains Supported</strong></p> </td> <td style="background-color:#ededed; vertical-align:top"> <p><strong>Descriptions</strong></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td style="vertical-align:top"> <p>East China 1</p> </td> <td style="vertical-align:top"> <p>SF</p> </td> <td style="vertical-align:top"> <p>BMS and ECS are recommended to be deployed in the same VPC since accesses among different VPC networks need to create an express connect.
