[Openstack-operators] How Do I allow IP protocols other than TCP, UDP, or ICMP (such as GRE)through my security group?

I am using GRE.

GRE packets which are encapsulated within IP will use IP protocol type 47.

This is neither TCP nor UDP.

Everything is working great, however....

I am trying to send some traffic via a gre tunnel to an IP address of an interface on my instance. This traffic is neither TCP or UDP. How do I allow this traffic through my security group since I can only select TCP, UDP, or ICMP. Is there a allow any any command?


What protocol are you using?  Chances are it is either TCP or UDP.  HTTP is TCP.



Thank you.
