"Add Router" and "Remove Router" operations are now controlled by update_firewall rule in the policy.json file. Previously they were controlled by get_firewall rule and non-existing rules like add_router and remove_router. If operators define their custom policy rules for add_router and remove_router, such policy rules need to updated accordingly. [bug 1703952]

Handling a shared rule or policy is now controlled by the policy mechanism. Only admin users (by default) can set shared attribute when creating or updating a firewall rule or policy. The checkbox on shared attribute is now disabled if a user has no sufficient permission. [bug 1699717]
