Updating firewall rules - Google Cloud deployment

As a best practice, implement a layered security approach to limit access.

Username and password for each user

Provide each user with their own Helix Core username and password.

Create firewall rules

When the Helix Core Server was configured during deployment, a firewall rule was automatically created to allow incoming traffic to port 1666 from the specified IP range, usually either a single IP or open to all. To change those rules, you can create firewall rules at no charge using the Google Cloud security interface.

For information about adding firewall rules to your VM instance, see the Google Cloud help.
