Title:
  Security groups cannot be used with XenAPI + OVS plugin

Status in neutron:
  Expired

Bug description:
  When using the Nova XenAPI driver with Neutron (Open vSwitch with
  VLAN), it is not possible to use another firewall_driver than
  NoopFirewallDriver ([SECURITYGROUP] section of the plugin
  configuration file). With the OVSHybridIptablesFirewallDriver driver,
  the OVS agent running on the compute node won't configure the flows on
  the OVS ports.

  The XenAPI plugin [1] doesn't manage standard input which seems to be
  a blocker for running the iptables-save and iptables-restore commands
  [2]. Some work has been done in the past for nova-network [3] and I
  guess that something similar should be implemented for Neutron.
