Hello,

Concerning super-nodes, is it possible to define a super-node based on IP addresses or other criteria? I mean, without having to make several rules based on computers (in Client Settings). If I assign several nodes to clients that are spread over different sites, which one will be used first?

Concerning the roadmap, I had seen that work was in progress for server endpoints, with a different binary. Is it possible to have a progress report on this feature?

Kind regards,

To answer the question on what happens "If I assign several nodes to clients that are spread over different sites, which one will be used first". When working in "Semi-isolated environments" the Windows client checks each of the assigned clients to see which gives the best service; including factors such as round trip time / delay. Super Node that gives best service will be selected. In your example is likely to be the super node that is located in the same site.

Assigning multiple super nodes to a client is important to provide redundancy and client will fail-over to another super-node if connection through super node is lost

It's great how it works! In terms of blade and installation for a super-node, no prerequisites? once they are designated in the as super-node, it works?
Also, at network level, between the clients and the super-node, what ports need to be opened?
