FWaaS changes to support Distributed Virtual Router(DVR)

Registered by badveli_vishnuus

FWaaS needs to see both sides of the traffic and is stateful in that connections are tracked.To maintain the requirement of seeing both sides of the traffic we propose to add a bridge before the internal bridge and tunnel bridge and add the fwaas rules in the bridge, that way both directions of traffic can be inspected in a stateful manner, for traffic between VMs that are hosted in the same node firewall rules are applied on router name space.
