I did not have a clear understanding of when a security group would or would not be applied to a port and reading the documentation did not help. Massively expand the security groups document, adding a couple of important notes along the way as well as references to the nova-specific security group operations.

In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
