Default Firewall Rules in GCP

Also read - Best practices for GCP Firewall Rules and Firewall Policies in GCP

For a VM that lives in the default VPC, there are a few default firewall rules (Note that these are different from IMPLIED rules - which are basically all egress allowed and all ingress blocked)

  • By default, Ingress (e.g. HTTP ingress) is denied.
  • VM to VM traffic is always allowed.
  • SSH and RDP inbound are allowed from all sources
