Ok, thanks.

I'll read the shorewall doc a little more.

By the way, any reason to use shorewall instead iptables directly ?

I'm reading openstack and cloustack firewall code, implementation is not too 
difficult

You normally want to setup a firewall for each VM - for example each customer 
want 
to have a firewall for his VMs. 

But we may also allow other groups like VM pools, or global rules.

It must be possible to define rules at different levels: 

- for any network interface in the VM 
- for each VM (sum of all network interfaces of a VM) 
- for a VM pool (list of VMs) 
- at global level (all VMs)
