ELB VPC
Security
EIP
Group VPC allows you to create logically isolated and private virtual
networks for cloud resources, such as cloud servers,
Networking
databases. You can customize subnets, security rules, and
assign public IPs and bandwidths. Each VPC you create is
securely isolated from other VPCs, enable you to create a
more secured architecture

Elastic IP (EIP)
ELB VPC
Security
EIP
Group An EIP is a public IP address that can be accessed directly
over the Internet. An EIP consists of a public IP address and
Networking
some amount of public network bandwidth. You can
bind/unbind an EIP to a cloud service like ECS. When a cloud
server (ECS) is bounded with an EIP, this IP will be its public
IP and you can access the server with it

Security Group
ELB VPC
Security
EIP
Group A security group is a collection of access control rules for a
group of cloud resources, such as ECS, that have the same
Networking
security protection requirements and are mutually trusted
within a VPC. After a security group is created, you can
create access rules for the security group, these rules will
apply to all cloud resources added to this security group

Project 1, A Quick Tryout
Please refer to hands-on guidebook chapter 1
In this project, we will launch and connect to a cloud server.

We will purposely ignore some ECS configuration detail (like
cloud server spec, Image, VPC and Security Group) and
focus on three key steps: G42 Cloud console operation,
cloud server launching and connecting to the server
*Please release the cloud server in the end of the project

Project 1, A Quick Tryout
Please refer to hands-on guidebook chapter 1
Please follow the steps from section 1.2.1 to 1.2.2
