This wishlist bug has been open a year without any activity. I'm going
to move it to "Opinion / Wishlist", which is an easily-obtainable queue
of older requests that have come on.

In case you want to work on that, consider writing a blueprints [1] and
spec [2]. I'll recommend to read [3] if not yet done. The effort to
implement the requested feature is then driven only by the blueprint
(and spec).

Title:
  Doesn't seem possible to configure direction as part of security rule
  creation

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Opinion

Bug description:
  Maybe I'm missing something, but when I was trying to set up some
  security rules through Horizon, had issues, and tried to switch to
  CLI, I couldn't figure out how to make an egress rule through nova
  secgroup-add-rule, everything was ingress, with no option to specify
  egress.

  From the docs:
  http://docs.openstack.org/cli-reference/content/novaclient_commands.html

  nova secgroup-add-rule command

  usage: nova secgroup-add-rule <secgroup> <ip-proto> <from-port> <to-port>
                                <cidr>

  Add a rule to a security group.

  Positional arguments

  <secgroup>
      ID or name of security group. 

  <ip-proto>
      IP protocol (icmp, tcp, udp). 

  <from-port>
      Port at start of range. 

  <to-port>
      Port at end of range. 

  <cidr>
      CIDR for address range. 

  Shouldn't it be possible to specify an egress rule through the CLI? As
  part of the creation in Horizon, you pick EGRESS/INGRESS along with
  the other fields that the add-rule command lets you configure.
