The AuthorizeSecurityGroupIngress operation
adds permissions to a security group.
Permissions are specified by the IP protocol (TCP, UDP or ICMP), the source of the request (by IP range or an Amazon EC2 user-group pair), the source and destination port ranges (for TCP and UDP), and the ICMP codes and types (for ICMP).
Permission changes are propagated to instances within the security group as quickly as possible. However, depending on the number of instances, a small delay might occur.
