Thesis Applicability to the OpenStack Project

Hello,

Just to make sure I understand:

1.) I'm assuming that you can dilettante which policies apply to specific VM's 
within a group (Is this correct?).  With regards to DENY permissions, they are 
handled specially.  In such a case, all other VM's are provided with ALLOW 
permissions for that rule, while the destined VM for the DENY policy is 
provided with a DENY.
- Would you necessarily want to automatically provide all other VM's with an 
ALLOW privilege?  Not all VM's in that group may need access to that port...

Keshava: Yes that's correct 

2.) Group Policy does support a Hierarchy. (Is this correct?)

Keshava: Yes that's correct 

3.) On a separate note: Is the Group Policy feature exposed via a RESTful API 
akin to FWaaS?

Thank you,

Mike Grima, RHCE
