Hello,

I use Trove on my test environment and some things look very insecurely for me.
The base trove schema requires access to the MQ service from guest instances, 
that means the network allocated to guest instances (let's call it the trove 
network) should has access to the management network (where the MQ servers 
placed), but in order to allocate a network port on the trove network a client 
need to have access to this network. 
The question is — what does prevent (or can prevent) users to create an 
instance (not a trove guest, but just a common compute instance) in the same 
trove network and get access to the management network (at least to the MQ 
service). It’s not a problem for trove guests, because clients don’t have SSH 
access to trove guests.
Seems, nothing does and any clients can just allocate instances on the trove 
network and get access to the MQ service (next, ddos is a possible security 
violation at least)
I found the config option trove_managed_net_id in the Trove wiki, but there are 
no mentions how to use it and I can not find any terminations of those options 
in the trove code (newton release)

Thanks.
