InstanceSecurityGroup
The security group to assign to the ECS instances. If blank, the Rack creates a security group open to all IPs in your VPC.
| Default value | "" |
Use Cases
- Restricting inbound traffic to instances from specific CIDR ranges or security groups
- Applying a pre-existing security group that meets your organization's network security policies
- Locking down instance access in environments where the default open-VPC security group is too permissive
Additional Information
The value should be a valid AWS Security Group ID, for example:
$ convox rack params set InstanceSecurityGroup=sg-0abc1234def56789a
When this parameter is blank, Convox creates a default security group that allows all traffic from within the VPC. If you provide a custom security group, ensure it permits the necessary traffic for the ECS agent, load balancers, and inter-container communication.
If you also need to customize the security group for build instances specifically, see BuildInstanceSecurityGroup.
