@Kevin I am using nova vlan manager , adding rule for every vlan would be
then one more task todo.

This is first scenerio

In my case i am using nova-network with vlan manager , so i would like to
use my
own router instead of the bridge that openstack creates, even i have
implemented inter-vlan routing , i want some vlans to commmunicate to a
single vlan, but not those vlans with each other.

Second  Scenerio

If i use a external router , and implemented inter-vlan routing , still my
vlans communication is blocked by nova security group thats why i need to
disable security group.

@Kiall , i think this flag would work i once used in for quantum,i would
try this.
