This setup may be possible although there are a few potential issues. Firstly, see: http://www.datastax.com/docs/opscenter/configure_opscenter#configuring-firewall-port-access
Basically the agents and OpsCenter communicate on ports 61620 and 61621 by default (those can be configured though). The agents will contact the the OpsCenter machine on port 61620. You can specify the interface the agents will use to connect to this port when installing/setting up the agents. The OpsCenter machine will contact the agents on port 61621. Right now the OpsCenter machine will only talk to the nodes using the listen_address configured in your cassandra conf. We have a task to fix this in the future so that you can configure the interface that opscenter will contact each agent on. In the meantime though OpsCenter will need to be able to hit the listen_address for each node.
