Security Group for OpenStack

A security group defines the virtual firewall rules for your instance to control inbound and outbound traffic. When you launch GigaVUE‑FM, GigaVUE V Series Proxies, GigaVUE V Series Nodes, and UCT-V Controllers in your project, you add rules that control the inbound traffic to instances, and a separate set of rules that control the outbound traffic.

The following table lists the Network Firewall / Security Group requirements for GigaVUE Cloud Suite.

Note:  When using dual stack network, the below mentioned ports must be opened for both IPv4 and IPv6.
