And there is a concept of a "management network" that is private -- so you could have an outward-facing node running the latest linux distro and acting as a bastion host for a "legacy node" (that is otherwise unreachable from the outside world -- save for any connections initiated by the legacy node). And nodes could be anywhere in the virtual/physical world, including all coincident on the same VM?</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Jeff</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div></div></div>
