958+ Adding Firewall rules on a public IP address in a VPC
959+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
960+
961+ In a VPC, once the public IP address is acquired, you can create firewall rules
962+ for the public IP address. Firewall rules are created to allow traffic from
963+ specified source CIDRs to a tier through the selected public IP address. For
964+ example, you can create a firewall rule to allow SSH or HTTP traffic to the Web
965+ tier.
966+
967+ Firewall rule management in a VPC depends on the Firewall service capability
968+ configured in the VPC offering. When creating the VPC, use a VPC offering that
969+ includes the Firewall service with VpcVirtualRouter as its provider.
970+
971+ Steps to add a firewall rule on a public IP address in a VPC are as follows:
972+
973+ #. Log in to the CloudStack UI.
974+ #. In the left navigation, choose Network.
975+ #. In the Select view, select VPC.
976+ #. Enter Public IP addresses section and click on the
977+ Public IP Address to which you want to add firewall rules.
978+ #. Click the Firewall Rules tab, which will appear only if the public IP address is associated with a tier.
979+ #. Click Add Firewall Rule and specify the following:
980+
981+ - *Source CIDR * - The CIDR that defines the source of the traffic.
982+
983+ - *Protocol * - The protocol that defines the type of traffic.
984+
985+ - *Start Port * and *End Port * - The port range that defines the destination of the traffic.
986+ If you are opening a single port, use the same number in both fields.
