Description

Currently we had to turn authorize_with_trusted_hosts off because discovered hosts were not able to register (the method checks for DNS and reverse DNS).

Proper fix is to implement new behavior - authorize_with_trusted_hosts should accept range(s) of IP addresses (subnets) for which clients are authorized. Then we need to re-enable this again for the smart_proxy_discovery.

Users will need to set this in YAML file prior discovering.

Ok the workaround in the #9459 is fail enough. Closing this one, we will have a different ticket in regard to improving security from the discovered nodes.
