🌐Whitelist an IP Address in Your EC2 Security Group

To provide access of your ui to a specific IP address (e.g., a team member), follow the steps below to update your EC2 security group settings:

Step 1: Locate Your EC2 Instance

• In the search bar at the top, type EC2 and select it from the list of services.

• In the EC2 Dashboard, click "Instances (running)" in the left-hand menu.

• Find and select the EC2 instance you want to update by checking the box next to it.

Step 2: Access the Security Group

• Go to the Security tab.

• Under Security Groups, click the name of the security group.

Step 3: Edit Inbound Rules

• In the Security Group details page, in the "Inbound rules" tab, click the "Edit inbound rules" button.

Step 4: Add the IP Address

• Click "Add Rule".

• Choose the appropriate type of traffic you want to allow (e.g., HTTP for port 80).

• In the Source field, select "My IP" to add your current IP or choose "Custom" to enter a different IP address manually.

• Optionally, you can add a description to help you remember why this IP was added.

Step 5: Save the Changes

The specified IP address is now whitelisted and will be able to access your ui as per the rule you configured.
