Hello @srikwit , It looks like you cant save the inbound rules. Could you post a screnshot of the submission report. You can find it next to the submit button and it looks like this:


Try adding the rule and try to save, if it works then edit again to delete the other rule, submit to see if it pass the grader. Thanks

Hi @Georgios

I have restarted the lab and I am still unable to edit either this rule or the other existing rule.

Due to this my assignment progress also does not progress:

Kindly grant the permissions for the task.

Hello again thanks for the information, however I couldn’t reproduce the error and will try to reach someone about the permissions. Could you send a screenshot of the submission report in case you try again (it’s a pop up if you press here and should be like the screenshot above).

Hi, I have been able to fix the issue.

The error was more from a UI perspective to add the inbound rules in AWS.
Clicking below the existing rule enabled addition of a new rule that could be saved.
