After reviewing: https://docs.ceph.com/en/reef/rados/configuration/msgr2/#connection-mode-configuration-options I am still confused about the difference between: ms_service_mode•<https://docs.ceph.com/en/reef/rados/configuration/msgr2/#confval-ms_service_mode> a list of permitted modes for clients to use when connecting to the cluster. and ms_client_mode•<https://docs.ceph.com/en/reef/rados/configuration/msgr2/#confval-ms_client_mode> a list of connection modes, in order of preference, for clients to use (or allow) when talking to a Ceph cluster. Is there a difference between clients “connecting to the cluster” and “use when talking to a Ceph cluster”? Or are there different categories of “clients” here?
