Open the SSH Key Pair you generated from AWS and used during setup.In the bottom right corner, change to All Files (*.*).Click Generate New Key Pair with PuTTYgen.ppk format, you can skip to the next section Run the Installer and leave everything on default.I will not be providing instructions on how to install and use this program for this reason. The FileZilla installer has been reported to contain malware (and as far as I know, still does). I emphatically suggest you do not use FileZilla For mac users, CyberDuck is available for you to use. If you're on Windows, either one will work (my personal preference is WinSCP). I have provided instructions for WinSCP and CyberDuck. To the right of this name you will find a column titled Public IPv4 address. You should see a Running instance with the name FoundryServer.If not, each time you reboot the instance, you will have to get this value again.

If you have a Dedicated IP, you will only have to do this once for the initial setup. If you would like option 2 (all IP addresses), select 'Anywhere'įirst, you will need to have your EC2 instance's IP handy. Source: If you would like option 1 (only your IP), select 'My IP.'

A new rule will appear at the bottom of the list.

Sg-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (stackname-FoundryServerSG-xxxxxxxxxxxxx) It should be labeled in the following format:

Under Security groups, click the link.

At the bottom of the screen, you will see instance details, click Security.

Navigate to the EC2 dashboard by searching EC2 in the Services dropdown.

While this option does open up a larger vulnerability in your system, it is unlikely to be exploited UNLESS you do not securely store your SSH key pair.

Allow access from all Public IP addresses.

This means that each time you would like to connect to the instance, you will have to change the IP address of the rule. While this option is more secure, your public IP automatically changes every so often.

Only allow access from your Public IP address.

Aka, you will be able to use WinSCP or CyberDuck to access the files in your server.

When opened, it allows for SFTP and SSH access. Opening Port 22īefore you connect to the server, you will need to open up port 22 in the EC2 Security Group. If you don't think you'll need this, skip on ahead to Accessing Foundry. This provides an interface for file transfer without having to use command line. If you would like to transfer files between the foundry server and your computer, you will want to set up WinSCP or CyberDuck.
