Hi Nachi:

This looks pretty good. So effectively, the security group code will be run before direct port operations are undertaken on the host itself, right? I notice the blueprint only mentions LinuxBridge and OVS plugins. I assume there is some anticipated work for the other plugins (Ryu, NEC, NVP, and Cisco) once this work lands? For instance, is iptables required for each plugin? I imagine Ryu could simply implement security groups using OpenFlow rules for example.

Thanks,
Kyle
