-t ICMP_TYPE_CODE | If the protocol is ICMP, the ICMP type and code must be specified. This must be specified as type:code where both are integers. Type or code (or both) may be specified as -1 which acts as a wildcard. This option only applies when specifying a CIDR subnet as the source. | Yes | -t 2:5 |
-u SOURCE_GROUP_USER | The owner of a group specified using -o.
