Create and manage firewall groups from the Firewall page in my.cubepath.com. A group is a reusable set of inbound/outbound rules you attach to one or more Virtual Machines or Dedicated Servers.

Create a group

  1. 1
    Open the create flow
    On the Firewall page, click New Group and give it a name. Groups live at the project level, so any machine in the project can use one.
  2. 2
    Add rules
    Each rule sets a direction (incoming/outgoing), protocol (TCP/UDP/ICMP/GRE), port(s) and a source/destination CIDR (empty = any).
  3. 3
    Save
    By default a group ends with incoming DROP and outgoing ACCEPT, so add an inbound rule for each service you expose (e.g. TCP 22, 443).

Attach it

Open a machine's Firewall tab and toggle the group On, then Apply Changes, rules take effect live, with no reboot.
