Provides an ElastiCache Security Group to control access to one or more cache clusters.
NOTE: ElastiCache Security Groups are for use only when working with an ElastiCache cluster outside of a VPC. If you are using a VPC, see the ElastiCache Subnet Group resource.
!> WARNING: With the retirement of EC2-Classic the aws.elasticache.SecurityGroup resource has been deprecated and will be removed in a future version.
