I have created two vms in same subnet. Able to access public internet from both vms. Even RDP works fine between two VMS but ping and other tcp connections won't work and request is timed out.
Below are the inbound and outbound rules

VPC and Subnet => Public and has an Internet Gateway
I've Apache web server running on the instance listening on port 80 & 443 and I can reach it from within the ec2 instance.
VPC and Subnet NACL is set to default and allows all network.
Instance has a public DNS
I can RDP into the instance from my local.
Instance can reach the internet
I cannot reach the instance via my local on browser or telnet on port 80/443
Do you guys have any idea what's causing it?
I've verified that the subnet is public, has an internet gateway, NACL's good and I can RDP into the server. The instance can access the internet.
Edit: Security Group on the Instance allows all ports from my IP address.
It was the windows firewall settings. I had to allow ports 80 and 443 to go through.
Thanks to Steve G in the question comments for the answer.
I created a simple web application on AWS ec2 ubuntu instance, but was unable to access the webpage by ip and port from other machines. The application binds on 0.0.0.0:80, and this port has been added into ufw allowing list. Within the aws control panel, I also added 80 to the rule lists.
Currently, I could access the port 22 by telnet ip 22 but no way to get responses from ping ipaddress, it shows request timeout. It also blocks on telnet ip 80 without any responses.
Any ideas? Really appreciate it
here are some troubleshooting tips.
Check if the web application is actually running
you can do this simply by doing a telnet ip 80 from the instance itself
disable the internal firewall
try disabling the firewall inside the instance, see whether it's working.
ping
In order for ping to work, enable ICMP protocol in your AWS security group
I am trying to configure OpenVPN to my Amazon EC2 Ubuntu instance. I have opened up both TCP and UDP ports on both the load balancer and the VPC instance. I can connect if I open my putty session to the server and set a SSH tunnel on port 1194, and then connect OpenVPN on localhost 1194, but I am trying to figure out how to set my DNS entry so that I can just connect through the VPN using UDP without setting a SSH tunnel. Any advice? I have tried so many combinations and read everything I can find...
Ok, I finally worked it out. The cname has to match the actual address of the vpc directly, it cannot go through the load balancer and the aname matches the IP of the OpenVPN.
I have Xampp on a server and am able to access it from inside my local network, I have 3 vpns to other rooftops that can ping the server just fine, but can't get xampp to allow them to pull up a web page on the server outside the local network.
found this on the web, works for local but not the vpns:
Allow from ::1 127.0.0.0/8 x.x.x.0/8\
fc00::/7 10.0.0.0/8 172.16.0.0/12 x.x.0.0/16\
fe80::/10 169.254.0.0/16
how do you allow access to a webpage through your vpns and not screw up security with 'Allow from all'?
If you dont want to whitelist all connections you will have to set up 3 rules.
If it works for the local network it should work for VPNs either. So i guess you have a problem by detecting the correct ips for the vpns.
They depend on which kind of VPN you are using:
If it is a End-to-End VPN you should know the VPN Net ip and subnet mask. You can look for it in the vpn adapters settings.
If it is a Site-to-End VPN there should be no problem as the clients are a part of the local network.
If it is a site-to-site VPN and there are no forwarding rules active you also wouldnt have a problem. Unless the ip addresses overlap.
If you are working with forwarding it will be very hard to handle the different ip ranges. So consider using a simple vpn.
I hope i got your question right and it may help someone:)
I want to setup a render farm in EC2 (all Win2012r2) with several slaves an one instance with a OpenVPN connection to our office LAN (all OSX).
What I have done so far:
setup VPC 10.42.0.0/16
setup OpenVPN 10.8.0.0/24, one instance as client, the server is in our office 192.168.1.0/24, the connection is working flawlessly
added 10.8.0.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24 to the VPC Route Tables/Routes Tab with target: VPN client instance
Source/dest checks turned off for the VPN client instance
What is working:
I can ping around in the VPC
I can ping around the VPN
What doesn't work:
ping from VPN server to the clients VPC-address
ping from a slave node to the VPN net
some debugging:
wireshark on the VPN client 10.8.0.14 shows a ping echo 'no response' when trying to ping 10.8.0.14 from 10.42.243.30, so the return route seems to be broken
So how do get the VPC working that every instance can ping to the VPN server and additionally our office lan?

Dennis
I suspect you need to configure your Network ACLs (Security Groups) to allow all inbound and outbound traffic between your VPC nodes.
I figured out the Windows service Routing and Remote Access didn't run as suspected.
No everything works like a charm!

Please check your VPN Settings from OpenVpn Admin Page. Specify the private subnets to which all clients should be given access at Rooting section from the VPN Settings Tab on OpenVPN Admin Page.
