Title:
  [RFE] Scheduling of Firewall rules

Status in neutron:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  (A)Summary : Firewall rules in Openstack does not support scheduling
  (B)Further information :
  (B.1)High level description: Currently Openstack firewall rules do not allow scheduling. When a router is associated with a firewall, the rules making the firewall are active for the whole duration till the rule is a part of the firewall.
  However, users may require a scheduled action in the firewall, so that a single rule can act upon the firewall packets for a specific time period.After the time period expires, the rule can change its behavior on the same packets.
  (B.2)Pre-conditions: The following requirement does not have an explicit pre-conditon.
  Note:
  - This is applicable for all tenants
  (B.3)Step-by-step reproduction steps: NA, as this feature does not currently exist in Openstack.
  (B.4)Expected output: User should be able to create a Firewall rule which can be scheduled, to provide extended support to the user.
  (B.5)Actual output: Such a facility in the firewall rule is not available.
  (B.6)Version:
  - OpenStack version (Specific stable branch, or git hash if from trunk): Tag ID : c1310f32fbb6dfa958bb31152ee5b492b177c6cb
  - Linux distro, kernel.: Ubuntu 14.04
  - DevStack or other _deployment_ mechanism? : Devstack
  - Environment: Neutron with Firewall Extensions, on a single node machine.
    However, the above requirement is independent of the environment.
  (C)Perceived severity: Medium
