Hello, You will want to do this over WireGuard tech from experience, IOPS will be brutal, like 200 IOPS. Wireguard has a few benefits but notably: - Higher rate of transfer per CPU load. - State of the the art protocols. As opposed to some of the more legacy systems. - Extremely fast re-connections, re-keys on IKE can be brutal. Further fine tuning is possible too but i'm, not at that level of knowledge. For flat files of several gigs you're going to get a decent experience, but if you try to run VMs off this... you're in for a bad time. Regards, Adam On 5/21/24 01:07, Malcolm Haak wrote:
Yeah, you really want to do this over a vpn.
Performance is going to be average at best. It would probably be faster to re-export it as NFS/SMB and push that across the internet.

Hi all, Due to so many reasons (political, heating problems, lack of space aso.) we have to plan for our ceph cluster to be hosted externaly. The planned version to setup is reef. Reading up on documentation we found that it was possible to run in secure mode.
Our ceph.conf file will state both v1 and v2 addresses for mons: mon host = [v2:4.3.2.1:3300/0,v1:4.3.2.1:6789/0] [v2:4.3.2.2:3300/0,v1:4.3.2.2:6789/0] [v2:4.3.2.3:3300/0,v1:4.3.2.3:6789/0]
Then changing the following configuration options to only secure: ms_cluster_mode = secure ms_service_mode = secure ms_client_mode = secure ms_mon_cluster_mode = secure ms_mon_service_mode = secure ms_mon_client_mode = secure
Then I remounted cephfs on the clients on our test cluster, but still the fs would mount on ports 6789. I thought that the above secure config change would "force" the mount on port 3300 and v2. Mounting with option ms_mode=secure, did the trick. Is that the way cephfs is working that you explicit have to specify secure mode? I thought that cephfs clients would use the secure mode with these settings, but maybe I am wrong?
Of cause we also plan to limit the firewalls on servers so only the specific subnet will be able to connect and mount cephfs.
From my understanding from the documenation this would be the way to set this up with ceph exposed to internet.
Is there something that we are missing or something that would make the setup more secure?
What about a tunnel, and have a local ip range route through it? I am not sure what happens if someone is brute forcing your monitors.
