Will Stevens commented on CLOUDSTACK-5278:
------------------------------------------
Sorry for the delay getting back to you. I had some issues getting my dev
environment back up and running after pulling the latest 4.3 branch.
Yes, I have tested your diff with my code and the latest code on 4.3 and
everything works fine in my plugin.
I will be posting a bug for my plugin with my patch to fix it a little later
this afternoon.
Thanks for the hard work,
Will

> These issues may also exist in the 4.2 branch, but I am currently
> testing/working on the 4.3 branch.
> I believe these bugs were introduced with the change to the Network Service
> Offering to add the 'Default egress policy' dropdown.
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-1578
> I am trying to resolve the bugs this change introduced in the Palo Alto
> plugin.
> There are two types of Egress rules (from what I can tell).
> - FirewallRule.FirewallRuleType.System : this appears to be set up by the
> system on network creation to correspond to the global network default
> allow/deny egress rule.
> - FirewallRule.FirewallRuleType.User : any rule that a user creates through
> the UI will get this type.
> There are bugs associated with both of the options in the dropdown (allow and
> deny).
> Case: 'deny'
> - When the network is setup, it does not try to create the global deny rule
> for the network, but it appears to register that it exists. Instead, when
> the first egress rule is created by a user, the system sees both the 'system'
> and 'user' rules, so it will create both rules then.
> Case: both 'allow' and 'deny'
> - The clean up of the network global 'system' egress rules are never done.
> So when a network is deleted, it will leave an orphaned egress rule
> associated with the previous network's cidr. This is bound to cause many
> issues.
> - Even worse, it appears that the ID for the network global 'system' egress
> rule is hardcoded to '0'. Every time I try to spin up a new network it will
> attempt to create a rule with a '0' ID, but since one already exists with
> that ID, there is a config collision. In my case (Palo Alto), the second
> rule with the same ID gets ignored because it checks to see if the rule
> exists and it gets a 'yes' back because the previous network has an egress
> rule with that ID already.
> Let me know if you have additional questions...
