<title>Configure access and security for instances</title>

<?dbhtml stop-chunking?>
|
|
<para>Before you launch an instance, you should add security group
|
|
rules to enable users to ping and use SSH to connect to the
|
|
instance. To do so, you either <link
|
|
xlink:href="#security_groups_add_rule">add rules to the
|
|
default security group</link> or add a security group with
|
|
rules.</para>
|
|
<para>Key pairs are SSH credentials that are injected into an
|
|
instance when it is launched. To use key pair injection, the
|
|
image that the instance is based on must contain the
|
|
<literal>cloud-init</literal> package. Each project should
|
|
have at least one key pair. For more information, see <xref
|
|
linkend="keypair_add"/>.</para>
|
|
<para>If you have generated a key pair with an external tool, you
|
|
can import it into OpenStack. The key pair can be used for
|
|
multiple instances that belong to a project. For more
|
|
information, see <xref linkend="dashboard_import_keypair"
|
|
/>.</para>
|
|
<para>When an instance is created in OpenStack, it is automatically
|
|
assigned a fixed IP address in the network to which the
|
|
instance is assigned. This IP address is permanently
|
|
associated with the instance until the instance is terminated.
|
|
However, in addition to the fixed IP address, a floating IP
|
|
address can also be attached to an instance. Unlike fixed IP
|
|
addresses, floating IP addresses are able to have their
|
|
associations modified at any time, regardless of the state of
|
|
the instances involved.</para>

<section xml:id="security_groups_add_rule">

<para>This procedure enables SSH and ICMP (ping) access to

instances. The rules apply to all instances within a given
|
|
project, and should be set for every project unless there
|
|
is a reason to prohibit SSH or ICMP access to the
|
|
instances.</para>

<para>This procedure can be adjusted as necessary to add

additional security group rules to a project, if your
