Not able to ping from AWS EC2 instance
In my AWS EC2 instance, I hosted my website few days back. The website has apache, php, mysql and elasticsearch installed. Few days back I updated my site with SSL certification. I configured a security group include inbound to:
HTTP, SSH and HTTPS
My website is rendering properly and I am able to ssh into my EC2 instance. However, when i tried to update some python libraries, I could not do so - I get a connection timed out error after a minute. So is apt update command. When I tried ping www.google.com nothing happens.
I tried adding custom ICMP rule as given in this post in my security group. However, it did not help.
I tried appending ipv6 conf in /etc/systyl.conf as given in this post. This too did not help.
I am completely new to this and I am DIY person. I am not sure how to proceed further and don't want to meddle with. Can someone help?

@GHOST Thank you...I did that...but didn't work. I had to change parameters on my VPU to allow all traffic and it started working. Not sure whether it is correct or not....
