Okay, so I have some more questions then, but I'm still not sure how
helpful I can be.   Maybe someone else with a similar environment can chime
in.

These nodes, are they servers or endpoints (laptop/desktops used for
productivity - internet use, email, etc.)?  Are they behind network
firewalls or NAT, or are they exposed?  Are they shared machines or one
primary user each?  If there are any internet exposed services, what are
they?
