From 31e798dc21408b72f4fdfd74a2ba4c4847795474 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matt Riedemann Date: Sat, 14 May 2016 11:48:14 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Add a note about egress rules to os-security-group-rules api-ref There have been at least a couple of bugs about not being able to create egress security group rules in Nova, which is because nova-network does not support them. Neutron does, but Nova does not proxy this to Neutron, nor will it. So add a note in the api-ref docs for creating security group rules about the egress rule limitation with nova-network.
