> Here at LinkedIn, one issue we face is that we need to enforce different
> security requirement based on the location of client and the cluster.
> Specifically, for clients from outside of the data center, it is required by
> regulation that all traffic must be encrypted. But for clients within the
> same data center, unencrypted connections are more desired to avoid the high
> encryption overhead.
> HADOOP-10221 introduced pluggable SASL resolver, based on which HADOOP-10335
> introduced WhitelistBasedResolver which solves the same problem. However we
> found it difficult to fit into our environment for several reasons. In this
> JIRA, on top of pluggable SASL resolver, *we propose a different approach of
> running RPC two ports on NameNode, and the two ports will be enforcing
> encrypted and unencrypted connections respectively, and the following
> DataNode access will simply follow the same behaviour of
> encryption/unencryption*. Then by blocking unencrypted port on datacenter
> firewall, we can completely block unencrypted external access.
