> I do recommend separating your public and cluster networks but there's not a whole lot of benefit to it unless they are using physically separate links with dedicated bandwidth. I thought a large part of it was security, in that it’s possible to DOS the cluster by disrupting intra-OSD traffic. Even with message signatures turned on, it’s unwise to bet on there not being any security bugs. If you only have one 10Gb connection, perhaps consider separate VLANs?
