Hands-On: Recreate Security Groups for New VPC

Create the security groups for our new custom VPC.

Because security groups are linked to a VPC, we now need to recreate the security groups to migrate our WordPress instance into the new VPC.

We have seen how to create security groups in the fifth chapter. So, the following steps shouldn’t be new us:

  1. Create an empty security group.
  2. Add rules to this empty security group.
  3. Repeat for each security group to be created.
