Hi, I have a question or two that fit nicely in this thread, so I'll jump in. :)
I'm pretty comfortable with the Advanced Isolated, Basic, and VPC modes, but a little unsure as to the purpose of Advanced Shared mode. I took a peek at the docs and articles above, but can't quite see the answer - if I'm missing it, please let me know. What are the advantages of Advanced Shared mode over Basic mode? What are the advantages of Advanced Shared mode over Advanced Isolated mode? Doc [2] in Jessica's mail mentions that "Shared Networks are isolated by security groups" and that security groups are only supported in basic zones. As far as I know, security groups support for Advanced Shared networks isn't in master / 4.1 just yet; does that mean that there is currently no tenant isolation in Advanced Shared mode? Thanks, Dave.
