I have created an AWS AMI with Ubuntu Server 16.04 64 bit. After successfully logging into the server using SSH (ssh -i keypair.pem ubuntu@x.x.x.x, since it is a Ubuntu server) when I run sudo apt-get update, from command line, the process halts at:

0% [Connecting to us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com (52.73.36.184)] [Connecting to security.ubunErr:1 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security InRelease
Cannot initiate the connection to security.ubuntu.com:80 (2001:67c:1560:8001::14). - connect (101: Network is unreachable) [IP: 2001:67c:1560:8001::14 80]

I have added my Public IP address to SSH, HTTP and HTTPS protocols under both Inbound and Outbound rules.

Am I missing something?

does your instance have an internet gateway? – hjpotter92 Nov 15 '17 at 08:19
I am new to AWS. Please let me know what does this mean. – Subrata Sarkar Nov 15 '17 at 09:26
Actually I could resolve the issue by adding All Traffic at 0.0.0.0/0 as Outbound rule. Reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22955682/ec2-instance-on-aws-apt-get-not-working – Subrata Sarkar Nov 15 '17 at 09:31
Can you ping anything or use internet? Check using `ping google.com`. – zed Nov 15 '17 at 13:25
