Enterprise Replication
Gurpreet Sachdeva asked about Enterprise Replication: overlapping replicate sets across nodes, scalability, IPv6, licensing. Madison Pruet said yes to differing replicate sets, said blobs are not costly to replicate, and that network encryption exists but he would not say FIPS relates to ER. Gurpreet then asked about JITC compliance; no answer given.

I plan to use Enterprise Replication for replicating information amongst multiple IDS instances. Regarding this I had few queries: a) Can there be two different sets of replicates configured between different nodes. For e.g. consider the below scenario: i) Replicate 1 - Nodes A and B replicate table X information amongst themselves ii) Replicate 2 - Nodes A, B and C replicate table Y information amongst themselves b) Whats the level of scalability offered by ER in terms of the number of nodes which can be inter-connected in Update - Anywhere topology. Also, whats the scalability offered in terms of number of bytes which can be transferred. c) Is ER IPv6 compliant. I mean the interface on which replication takes place, can that be IPv6 interface. d) What are the licensing terms for ER. Do I need a separate license for ER if I already have license for normal IDS

How costly is it to replicate blobs. Is ER FIPS compliant
It is not costly to replicate blobs with ER. There is support for network encryption, but I wouldn't say that 100% of FIPS is even related to ER.

Is ER JITC compliant.
