Listing security group rules in the CLI

To obtain a listing of security group rules and associated security groups, use the openstack security group rule list command, as follows:

openstack security group rule list[--protocol <protocol>][--ingress | --egress] [--long][<group>] 

All arguments are optional but can be used to filter results. The output returned includes the ID, protocol, IP range, remote security group, and associated security group for all security group rules associated with the scoped project. Specifying --long will provide additional details not available in the standard output, including direction and ether type. If run as a user with the admin role, all security group rules across all projects will be listed.
