As usual with Java, there's a way around this. And as usual, it's extraordinarily painful: http://blogs.sun.com/jmxetc/entry/connecting_through_firewall_using_jmx I'd consider adding something like this to Cassandra by default, but I can't think of a reason to firewall your monitoring system away from your servers.
