need to know how to assign specific security group, and elastic ip to an image (ec2) instance #269

Closed metait closed 2 years ago

Hi,

Instead having Boxfuse to auto generate configuration for a new instance by taking all default settings, i would like to have Boxfuse to use a specific security group, and an elastic ip.

I see an option to select a security group in Boxfuse console, but i don't see an option to select an elastic IP address

Should I use command line command to configure an elastic ip? Could you let me know how i can enable elastic ip select box?

boxfuse cfg hello -env=test -securitygroup=sg-12345678 this result following error WARNING: Configure failed: Configuration failed: Time out: Payload of Instance i-0bb920b6913db7d71 failed to come up within 300 seconds

I have manually created a new custom security group, i see it under security group tab, but it does not come up in Boxfuse console. Why it is not coming up in the list?

Thanks, -ryan

Hi Ryan,

For the elastic IP: Make sure to create your app as Single Instance (Elastic IP). The Console will then allow you to select the elastic IP.

For the custom security group: make sure it has been created in the correct region and it will appear.

Please confirm it is now working for you.
