amazon web services - AWS Command Line: What "Outbound connections on 443 must be enabled" means? -


network newbie here.

background

i trying use aws command line utility connect instances on aws cloud.

problem

when try simple command (from either local machine or ec2) such as...

aws ec2 describe-instances 

i get...

could not connect endpoint url: "https://ec2.sa-east-1a.amazonaws.com/" 

which fine , dandy because according aws command line user manual should take note of:

the aws cli makes api calls services on https. outbound connections on tcp port 443 must enabled in order perform calls.

but suppose mean in first place? find above statement clear glass of muddy water.

1) should go 'security group' of instance , set inbound rules 'https tcp 443 0.0.0.0/0'? (doesn't work)

2) or set outbound rules , set 'https tcp 443 0.0.0.0/0' ? (doesn't work)

3) above statement has 'security groups'?

4) if doesn't has then, should in machine in order 'enable port 443. being said...

5) should run aws command line utility local machine or ec2 remote server?

i'd appreciate guidance can start solving problem.

thanks in advance!

you have region configured "sa-east-1a", region "sa-east-1". availability zones sa-east-1a, sa-east-1b, etc.
