Establish a connection to your EC2 instance

  • In order for you to establish an SSH connection to your EC2 instance:

    • On the Security Group, add an Inbound Rule to allow SSH traffic to your EC2 instance.

    • On the NACL, add both an Inbound and Outbound Rule to allow SSH traffic to your EC2 instance.

  • NACLs = Stateless (Less traffic is allowed; i.e. return traffic must be explicitly allowed).

  • Security Groups = Stateful (Full traffic is allowed; i.e. inbound AND outbound).
