Stu Hood commented on CASSANDRA-1567:
-------------------------------------

* For 0001, I would really like to see an {{A(bstract)StreamableSocket}} rather 
than complete duplication of the Stream classes
* Rather than a boolean, the {{internode_encryption}} setting should probably 
be an enum, to leave room to add conditional encryption based on zones returned 
by the snitch
* The SSL settings in JVM_OPTS should be disabled by default, and need a 
comment linking to a place to get more information about the keystore and 
truststore files (probably the 'Creating Keystores' section of the link in the 
description)

Sorry for the long delayed review: Thanks a ton for tackling this!

> Provide the option to encrypt internode communication. The initial thought is 
> to use JSSE 
> (http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/security/jsse/JSSERefGuide.html)
>  to wrap the existing ServerSocket & Sockets. This will only be an optional 
> configuration and not enabled by default. The defaults would be TLS V1, RSA 
> 1024-bit keys for handshake and SSL_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_MD5 as the cipher suite. 
> Although this can be made configurable if the need arises.
