Hi,

I am in charge of the IT in a french research laboratory. I would like to set 
up a distributed architecture with shinken.

Here is the situation:
We have a main site (Nantes), monitored by shinken, thanks for you work :)

But we also have a remote site (le Croisic), behind a SDSL connexion. We want 
to monitor some servers (about 10) on this site too, as shinken works well on 
Nantes.

Between these sites, The network is full of obstacles (VLAN, Firewall, etc.) :
Nantes <--> Firewall <--> Internet <--> Firewall <--> le Croisic

The solution may be to create two realm for Nantes and le Croisic, with a 
poller+scheduler at le Croisic. The connexions Arbiter --> poller and scheduler 
--> broker could be encapsulated into a VPN connexion between the two 
monitoring servers.

And my questions :
– how these connexions are secured (Arbiter --> poller and scheduler --> 
broker) ? Is it safe to use it directly on internet, or must we secure them ?
– Do the connexions between scheduler and broker put an heavy load on the 
Bandwith ? Le Croisic hasn't a good internet connexion unfortunatelly, so we 
don't want to overcharge it.

I am open to any suggestion to improve my system :)

Regards,

Adrien
