Public bug reported:

Currently it is not possible to allow or disallow traffic by packet
type, specifically broadcast, unicast, and multicast types.

By adding fields to security groups we can use multiple backends to
enforce these rules. Whether it be rules enforced by a firewall, TCP
offloading, or another kind of backend.

This way a user can configure a network with these configurations to
increase security and performance.
