  --no-remove           Do not remove any groups or rules, only add
  --no-remove-groups    Do not remove any groups, only add
  -I EC2_ACCESS_KEY, --ec2-access-key EC2_ACCESS_KEY
                        EC2 Access Key to use
  -S EC2_SECRET_KEY, --ec2-secret-key EC2_SECRET_KEY
                        EC2 Secret Key to use
  -R EC2_REGION, --ec2-region EC2_REGION
                        Region to use (default us-east-1)
  -U EC2_URL, --ec2-url EC2_URL
                        EC2 API URL to use (otherwise use default)
  -t TIMEOUT, --timeout TIMEOUT
                        Set socket timeout (default 120s)
  -m MODE, --mode MODE  Mode for validating group name and description
                        (default a)
  --insecure            Do not validate SSL certs
  --cert CERT           Path to CA certificates (eg. /etc/pki/cacert.pem)

First setup EC2_ACCESS_KEY and EC2_SECRET_KEY environment variables. You can also set EC2_URL to connect to custom EC2 endpoint (eg. OpenStack). Alternatively set these options from command line.

Setup is submitted by simple YAML configuration, it can be dumped from current EC2 account by running:

./bin/sgmanager.py --dump > conf/aws-dev.yaml

Then you can edit output yaml file and run following to see the diff:

./bin/sgmanager.py -c conf/aws-dev.yaml

To apply it, force run with parameter -f / --force.

To avoid removal of existing groups that aren't present in config file, use parameter --no-remove

Each configured group passes validation, group name and description shoul not exceed 255 characters.

There are several modes for string validation of both group name and description, set by -m / --mode:

• a, ascii - only ASCII characters
• s, strict - matches [a-zA-Z0-9_- ]
• v, vpc - string can contain only a-z, A-Z, 0-9, spaces, and ._-:/()#,@[]+=&;{}!$*

Mode depends on cloud used, for AWS EC2 -a is recommended, for AWS EC2 VPC -v and for OpenStack with ec2_strict_validation=on -s
