Whiteboard
Is this bp includes some implementation? ( Iptables? )
I'm also considering about firewalling on the Router. (nati)
Sumit: Thanks Nati. I believe, by implementation you mean a backend plugin/driver to realize the firewall policies. If so, yes, an iptables implementation is certainly a candidate, though we can implement/track it as a separate blueprint. The scope of the model proposed here does cover the case where the firewall also serves as a gateway router.
