I'm in the process of locking down my ports and have a few questions
regarding security groups and Scalr.

Our site really only needs ports 80 and 443 open on the app server, so
I'm planning to delete all other access from the app and mysql roles
(including UDP, ICMP, and TCP port 22).  I understand that removing
permissions from the security groups only pertains to outside access,
but allows all servers in the farm to have open port access.  Are
there any side effects to doing this?  I'd hate to inadvertently break
something.

Then, I plan to use the scalr.net interface to enable port 22 for my
local machine when needed, but close it when I'm not using it.

What are others doing for security groups?
