5.2 Securing Server Communication in
Clusters
A Acronis Storage cluster can contain three types of servers:
• MDS servers
• chunk servers
• clients
During cluster operation, the servers communicate with each other. To secure their communication, you
should keep all servers on an isolated private network—BackNet. The figure below shows an example cluster
configuration where all servers are set up on the BackNet.
The process of deploying such a configuration can be described as follows:
1. You create the cluster by making the MDS server and specifying one of its IP addresses:
