The ``net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-*`` kernel parameters were set to ``0``
in previous releases to improve performance and it was left up to neutron
to adjust these parameters when security groups are applied. This could
cause situations where bridge traffic was not sent through iptables and
this rendered security groups ineffective. This could allow unexpected
ingress and egress traffic within the cloud.
These kernel parameters are now set to ``1`` on all hosts by the
``openstack_hosts`` role, which ensures that bridge traffic is always
sent through iptables.
