Comment by Sam Kleinman (Inactive) [ 15/Aug/12 ]

My goal for this document is that it be more strategic rather than explicitly proscriptive.

We could talk about it more in person or over email, but in general I think the document should discuss and offer recommended approaches for: authentication, network/firewall approaches, VPN-type solutions for cross-data center communications, and whatever else you think would be best practices. There should probably also be actual configuration examples (complete with commands/etc.) for iptables.

Perhaps the best way to get started on this would be to come up with an outline, then we can talk about it, and make sure that we cover everything that it needs and then go from there. If you have any questions you can talk to me. I'm much more interested in getting all of the research, notes, and recommendations taken care of rather than getting all of the writing done.
