The user has a public network of hundreds of machines and 10 of them will be used to run a cluster. They are concerned about a broadcast going to all of those hundreds of machines to discover the 10 nodes that belong to the cluster. So they would prefer that opensaf talk to just the 10 nodes in that cluster with out broadcasting to all machines in the network.
