[jira] [Created] (JCLOUDS-101) Add security group/firewall support to base ComputeService

Andrew Bayer created JCLOUDS-101:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Add security group/firewall support to base ComputeService
                 Key: JCLOUDS-101
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCLOUDS-101
             Project: jclouds
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: jclouds-compute, jclouds-core
            Reporter: Andrew Bayer
            Assignee: Andrew Bayer
             Fix For: 1.7.0


Right now, we don't have an abstraction for dealing with security groups/firewalls across various compute APIs. As a result, code that needs to deal with said security groups/firewalls has to have implementations for each cloud it supports, which is...a pain, to say the least. While not all clouds have support for security groups or a similar concept, many do (at the very least, EC2, Nova and CloudStack all do, and CloudStack in fact has two different implementations depending on the network type), and this seems to be standard enough to merit a generic interface in the base ComputeService.
