Edge micro configuration among multiple instances

hi,

Scenario:

We have got currently eight environments (PROD, QA1, QA2, UAT1, UAT2, UAT3, PERF, DEV), and for each env we plan to have two MGW instance.

Question:

Do we need to spin multiple key and secret for each node in an env? or could I use a single key and secret?

What could be the impacts of using a single key & secret for 2 edgemicro nodes.

Thanks.

Each environment (org:env) will require a unique set of key and secret. Multiple MG instances pointed to the same env can share the same key and secret.

In your case, you'll have at least 8 keys and secrets). You could also have a key and secret per MG instance. In a tightly controlled environment, that would perhaps be an overkill. It helps when you have situations where an administrator might want to revoke a key/secret pair. You can do this without impacting other MG instances.
