To create a Custom Security Zone Recipe named IAD-SP-PBT-CSP-01 that allows the provisioning of compute instances in a public subnet, we will follow the steps outlined in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Security Zones documentation. These steps are based on verified procedures from the OCI Security Zone Guide and related resources.

Step-by-Step Solution for Task 1: Create a Custom Security Zone Recipe

Log in to the OCI Console:

Use your OCI credentials to log in to the OCI Console ( ).

Ensure you have access to the assigned compartment provided in the tenancy.

Navigate to Security Zones:

From the OCI Console, go to the navigation menu (hamburger icon) on the top left.

UnderGovernance and Administration, selectSecurity Zones.

Create a New Security Zone Recipe:

In the Security Zones dashboard, click on theRecipestab.

Click theCreate Recipebutton.

Configure the Recipe Details:

Name:Enter IAD-SP-PBT-CSP-01.

Description:(Optional) Add a description, e.g., "Custom recipe to allow compute instances in public subnet."

Leave theCompartmentas the assigned compartment provided.

Define the Security Zone Policy:

In the policy editor, start with a base policy. Since the Maximum Security Zone recipe restricts public subnet usage, you need to customize it.

Add the following policy statement to allow compute instances in a public subnet:

Allow service compute to use virtual-network-family in compartment where ALL {

target.resource.type = 'Instance',

target.vcn.cidr_block = '10.0.0.0/16',

target.subnet.cidr_block = '10.0.10.0/24'

}

Replace with the name of your assigned compartment.

This policy allows the Compute service to provision instances in the public subnet (10.0.10.0/24) within the VCN (10.0.0.0/16).

Adjust Restrictions:

Ensure the recipe does not inherit the Maximum Security Zone recipe's default restrictions that block public subnet usage. Explicitly allow the public subnet by including the subnet CIDR block (10.0.10.0/24) in the policy.

Remove or modify any conflicting default rules that prohibit public subnet usage (e.g., rules blocking internet access or public IP assignment).

Save the Recipe:

ClickCreateto save the custom security zone recipe.

Once created, note theOCIDof the recipe from the recipe details page. The OCID will be a unique identifier starting with ocid1.securityzonerecipe.

Verify the Recipe:

Go to theRecipestab and locate IAD-SP-PBT-CSP-01.

Ensure the policy reflects the allowance for compute instances in the public subnet by reviewing the policy statement.

OCID of the Created Custom Security Zone Recipe

The exact OCID will be generated upon creation (e.g., ocid1.securityzonerecipe.oc1..unique_string). Please enter the OCID displayed in the OCI Console after completing Step 7.

Notes

Ensure IAM policies are correctly configured to grant you permissions to create and manage security zone recipes in the compartment.

The policy assumes the public subnet CIDR (10.0.10.0/24) matches the diagram. Adjust if the actual subnet CIDR differs.

Test the recipe by associating it with a security zone and attempting to launch a compute instance to confirm compliance.

Task 2: Create a Compute Instance and Install the Web Server

Step 1: Create the Compute Instance

Log in to the OCI Console.

Navigate toCompute>Instances.

ClickCreate Instance.

Enter the following details:

Name: PBT-CERT-VM-01

Compartment: Select your assigned compartment.

Placement: Leave as default or select an availability domain (e.g., Availability Domain 1).

Image: ClickChange Image, selectOracle Linux 8, and confirm.

Shape: ClickChange Shape, selectVM.Standard.A1.Flex, and configure:

OCPUs: 1 (or adjust as needed)

Memory: 6 GB (or adjust as needed)

Networking:

Virtual Cloud Network: Select PBT-CERT-VCN-01.

Subnet: Select Compute-Subnet-PBT-CERT.

Leave public IP assignment enabled for internet access.

SSH Key: Provide your public SSH key (upload or paste) for secure access.

ClickCreateand wait for the instance to be provisioned.

Step 2: Connect to the Compute Instance

Once the instance is created, note thePublic IP Addressfrom the instance details page.

Use an SSH client to connect:

Command: ssh -i opc@

Replace with your private key path and with the instance’s public IP.

Step 3: Install and Configure Apache Web Server

Install Apache:

Run: sudo yum -y install httpd

Enable and Start Apache:

Run: sudo systemctl enable httpd

Run: sudo systemctl restart httpd

Configure Firewall to Allow HTTP Traffic (Port 80):

Run: sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=80/tcp

Run: sudo firewall-cmd --reload

Create an index.html File:

Run: sudo bash -c 'echo "You are visiting Web Server 1" >> /var/www/html/index.html'

Step 4: Verify the Configuration

Open a web browser and enter to ensure the page displays "You are visiting Web Server 1".

If needed, troubleshoot by checking Apache status: sudo systemctl status httpd.

Step 5: Retrieve and Enter the OCID

Go to the instance details page for PBT-CERT-VM-01 underCompute>Instances.

Copy theOCID(a long string starting with ocid1.instance., unique to your tenancy).

Enter the copied OCID exactly as it appears into the text box provided.

Notes

These steps are based on OCI Compute documentation and Oracle Linux 8 setup guides.

Ensure the security list PBT-CERT-CS-SL-01 allows inbound traffic on port 22 (SSH) and port 80 (HTTP) if not already configured.

The OCID will be unique to your instance; obtain it from the OCI Console after creation

To create a public subnet named IAD-SP-PBT-PUBSNET-01 within the VCN IAD-SP-PBT-VCN-01 using a CIDR block of 10.0.1.0/24 and configure it to use the Internet Gateway, follow these steps based on the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Networking documentation.

Step-by-Step Solution for Task 4: Create a Public Subnet

Log in to the OCI Console:

Use your OCI credentials to log in to the OCI Console ( ).

Ensure you have access to the assigned compartment.

Navigate to Virtual Cloud Networks:

From the OCI Console, click the navigation menu (hamburger icon) on the top left.

UnderNetworking, selectVirtual Cloud Networks.

Select the VCN:

Locate and click on the VCN named IAD-SP-PBT-VCN-01 created in Task 3.

UnderResources, selectSubnets.

Create a New Subnet:

Click theCreate Subnetbutton.

Configure the Subnet Details:

Name:Enter IAD-SP-PBT-PUBSNET-01.

Compartment:Ensure it is set to the assigned compartment.

Subnet Type:SelectPublic Subnet.

CIDR Block:Enter 10.0.1.0/24.

Route Table:Select the default route table associated with the VCN (ensure it includes a route to the Internet Gateway with destination 0.0.0.0/0).

Subnet Access:SelectPublic Subnetand ensure the Internet Gateway is associated.

DHCP Options:Leave as default or customize if required.

Security List:Use the default security list or create a new one with appropriate ingress/egress rules (e.g., allow TCP port 22 for SSH and all egress traffic).

Associate the Internet Gateway:

Verify that the subnet is configured to route traffic through the Internet Gateway. This is automatically handled if you selected the public subnet option and the VCN’s route table is correctly set (as configured in Task 3).

If needed, edit the route table for the subnet to ensure a rule exists:

Destination CIDR Block:0.0.0.0/0

Target Type:Internet Gateway

Target:Select the Internet Gateway associated with IAD-SP-PBT-VCN-01.

Create the Subnet:

ClickCreateto provision the subnet.

Once created, the subnet will be listed under the VCN’s subnets.

Verify the Configuration:

Go to the subnet details page for IAD-SP-PBT-PUBSNET-01.

Confirm the CIDR block is 10.0.1.0/24 and that it is a public subnet with Internet Gateway access.

Notes

Ensure the CIDR block 10.0.1.0/24 does not overlap with existing subnets in the VCN (10.0.0.0/16, including 10.0.10.0/24 from Task 3).

The Internet Gateway association relies on the route table configuration from Task 3. If it’s missing, update the route table as described in Step 6.
