Block Internet on Workspaces

0

Hello!
I cannot block Internet access on Workspaces.
In security group related to Workspaces in "Outbound rules" I deleted "0.0.0.0" rule, in "Outbound rules" I have only one rule, which allows traffic to local network (Workspaces subnet itself).

In directory settings "Access to Internet" is set up to "disable".

But I can access Internet resources from Workspace itself. And I don't understand why traffic is passing while no rules is set up.

What I need to set up for block access to Internet from Workspaces?

Thanks!

Hello!

I missed that there is additional Security Group.

You can check it here:
AWS Console-> Workspaces->Directories -> Select your directory -> Actions (update details) -> Security Groups ->"Select a security group to add to your WorkSpaces"

This group will be added to all new generated Workplaces
In my case this additional group contains outbound rule for 0.0.0.0/0

Thanks!
