Port open for memcache in aws ec2 instance

Hi I'm running an aws ec2 instance with Drupal 6.

I plan on installing memcached on this server. One requirement is to open up port 11211 which is default port for memcached

I want to know in aws ec2 instance how to open incoming and outgoing traffic for port 11211? Do I need to open this port for incoming and outgoing traffic?

Secondly how do I secure the aws setup so only my ec2 can access 11211 port?

Thanks!

Is your Ec2 within a VPC ? or is it classic EC2 ?

You need to make open ports on security groups and Network acl's. If you are new to AWS , you should first understand the NACL and Security group's and setup security in your environment.
