Eran Chinthaka Withana commented on CASSANDRA-4791:
---------------------------------------------------
[~jbellis], from my experience I have seen the bootstrapping node reading from
the nodes from a different data centers which are about 80ms away. And I don't
think those nodes should be considered "closest". The snitch, which I believe
comes from cassandra-topology.properties contains correct information about the
topology of the cluster.
I looked at CASSANDRA-2434 also and it says "even if you don't care about the
consistency issues, I don't think there is currently a way to bootstrap from
local nodes only." but not sure whether this got implemented in Cassandra 1.0.x
versions.

> When a node bootstraps, in a multi-datacenter environment, currently it is
> streaming data from any node available. But, to cut down the intra datacenter
> traffic, it should first try to stream data within the same datacenter or
> there should be a flag to explicitly limit it to stream data from its own
> data center.
