H Marcus, You are raising more questions here The traffic is just user data isn't it? Why a new traffic type? Or are you forking the data and then considering the fork another type? thanks, Daan On Fri, May 23, 2014 at 5:53 PM, Marcus wrote: > Perhaps it should be a separate traffic type, if w

Perhaps it should be a separate traffic type, if we go the route of piping it through to another network. I've also found a network_details table that seems to be unused. On Thu, May 22, 2014 at 9:04 AM, Marcus wrote: > Yet another vector > > > On Thu, May 22, 2014 at 8:07 AM, Erik Weber wrote

I've always viewed the permissions to be additive, if a domain admin has the ability to set up network sniffing on the VPC I'd imagine the root admin should be able to as well. Although perhaps not. Even though they have unfettered access to destroy all vms, networks, zones, the root admin may not

Marcus, you mention a permission issue that triggers the though: should a root admin be allowed? I think not. This brings up extra requirements on the IAM, does it? I would implement the functionality on the router. On Thu, May 22, 2014 at 6:42 AM, Marcus wrote: > I really like the lower overhea
