Add Services to the Firewall

Updated on 01 August 2024

You can add services to the firewall both when it is created and later, when the firewall already exists.

You can add a service to an allowing rule group only if it is not added to a prohibiting rule group, and vice versa.

A service can be simultaneously added to several groups of rules of the same type (allowing or denying).

Add services in the Firewall section

When creating a firewall: 

  1. Сlick Select a service in the Connect to services block.
  2. Select the ones you need.

When editing an existing firewall:

  1. Go to the Networks → Firewall section.
  2. Click on the rule group.
  3. Go to the Servers tab and click Add.
  4. In the window that opens, select the necessary services and save the changes.

Add services from the service page

You can add a service to the firewall from the service page itself. 

  1. Open the service in your control panel and go to the Network tab.
  2. In the Firewall block, click Configure.
  3. Select the rule group and click Save.

Delete services from the firewall

In the Firewall section

  1. Go to the Networks → Firewall section.
  2. Click on the rule group.
  3. Go to the Services tab.
  4. Click on the three dots next to the desired service and click Exclude service from group.
  5. Confirm deletion.

In the service's Network settings

To exclude a service from the firewall:

  1. Go to the service's Network tab.
  2. In the Firewall block, click on the three dots next to the desired group of rules and click Disable Firewall.
  3. Confirm disabling the rule group for this service.
