oci networking ssh bash

I'm building a feature where I'm learning this framework and I'm reviewing some code and Hey everyone, I'm running into an issue that's driving me crazy..... I'm facing a networking issue when trying to connect to an instance in OCI from a bastion host. I've set up a bastion host in the same subnet as my target instance, and I have configured the necessary security list rules. However, when I attempt to SSH into the target instance using the bastion host, I receive the following error: `ssh: connect to host <instance-ip> port 22: Connection timed out`. I've verified that the target instance is running and accessible from the VCN. My security list rules are as follows: - Ingress Rule: Allow TCP from the bastion host's public IP to port 22 on the target instance. - Egress Rule: Allow all traffic to any destination. Here's the command I'm using to SSH from the bastion host: ```bash ssh -i /path/to/private_key opc@<instance-ip> ``` I've also checked the instance's OCI configuration and confirmed that the appropriate IAM policies are in place, allowing the bastion host access to the instance. I ran a telnet command to verify connectivity and got `Trying <instance-ip>...` but it never connects. I've also looked for potential misconfigurations in the route table, but everything seems correct. Is there something I'm missing in the OCI configuration, or is there an additional step I need to take to troubleshoot this connection issue? I'm working on a API that needs to handle this. Thanks in advance! Any help would be greatly appreciated! I'm using Bash LTS in this project. I'd be grateful for any help. This is for a web app running on Windows 11. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
