In addition, the following API will be modified in a backward compatible manner, to allow a collection of NICs to be specified when deploying a new virtual machine; clarify which NICs will be returned as a result of a list virtual machines command, and specify that the security groups for a NIC be listed:

...

This feature will add the capability for security groups associated with a NIC to be modifiedupdated. The old security group rules must be removed and the new security group rules applied in a secure fashion (i.e. don't drop the old rules and leave the NIC unprotected for a short period before the new rules are applied).

...

The nics table is extended to add account/domain information.
A new table security_group_nic_map is introduced to contain the set of security groups associated with a Nic
A new view entitled nics_view is introduced to support the listNics command.

Extend NetworkService API to allow create/delete/update Nic

Extend UserVmService API to allow attach/detach of Nic from VM.

Introduce NicsJoinDao and NicsJoinVO classes to support query functions

Introduce SecurityGroupNicMapVO and SecurityGroupNicMapDao/Impl classes to provide access to the new security_group_nic_map table.

Implement create/delete/update Nic methods in NetworkServiceImpl

Implement attach/detach methods i nUserVmManagerImplin UserVmManagerImpl

Implement search for Nics method in QueryManagerImpl

This command modifies updates an existing NIC. The implementation must ensure that any security group rules associated with the NIC are safely adjusted (as the NIC may be connected to a virtual machine).
