Editing the RDS security group

In order to allow all of your work locations to access your new RDS, you have to add all of their IP addresses to the RDS security group:

1. Recheck the database's security group to make sure that you are able to connect to the RDS from your working locations. Click on VPC security groups default (sg-d6499d86), as shown in the preceding screenshot. This will redirect you to the security group page where you can click on the Inbound tab, as shown in the following screenshot:

• Protocol: TCP
• Port Range: 5432
• Source: MyIP or Custom
