> When a node enters the cluster, its configuration needs to be validated in 
> order to maintain cluster-wide invariants and to prohibit a non-compatible or 
> malicious node from entering the topology.
> h2. Possible approaches
> h3. Remote validation
> The entering node sends some metadata (e.g. its version) to a random remote 
> node, which validates the metadata and issues the permit for the node to join.
> *Pros:*
>  * Possibly better security: a malicious node would have to imitate valid 
> requirements.
> *Cons:*
>  * Harder to maintain backwards compatibility: old nodes need to predict what 
> information a new node might send.
> h3. Local validation
> The entering node collects some metadata from a random remote node and 
> decides whether it is able to join the cluster or not.
> *Pros:*
>  * Easier to maintain backwards-compatibility: a new node knows if older 
> nodes are compatible with it.
>  * Modular validation architecture: each plugin can independently register 
> its cluster state requirements.
> *Cons:*
>  * Possible security issues: a malicious node can enter the cluster more 
> easily. However, this may be mitigated by signing the handshake messages.
