Securing live migration streams
-------------------------------
If your compute nodes have at least libvirt 4.4.0 and QEMU 2.11.0, it is
strongly recommended to secure all your live migration streams by taking
advantage of the "QEMU-native TLS" feature. This requires a
pre-existing PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) setup. For further details
on how to set this all up, refer to the
:doc:`secure-live-migration-with-qemu-native-tls` document.
.. _configuring-migrations-kvm-block-and-volume-migration:
Block migration, volume-based live migration
--------------------------------------------
No additional configuration is required for block migration and volume-backed
live migration.
If your environment satisfies the requirements for "QEMU-native TLS",
then block migration requires some setup; refer to the above section,
`Securing live migration streams`_, for details. Otherwise, no
additional configuration is required for block migration and
volume-backed live migration.
Be aware that block migration adds load to the network and storage subsystems.

Securing live migration streams with QEMU-native TLS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is strongly recommended to secure all the different live migration
streams of a nova instance—i.e. guest RAM, device state, and disks (via
NBD) when using non-shared storage. For further details on how to set
this up, refer to the
:doc:`secure-live-migration-with-qemu-native-tls` document.
