With this in mind, I would appreciate some informed commentary from this group on the article by John Foley covering this topic in the September 2014 issue of Linux Journal:

http://www.linuxjournaldigital.com/linuxjournal/september_2014/?pg=62&pm=2&u1=friend

(You can close the subscription pop-in window to view the entire article, as it is an open article.)

It refers to a Cisco test server, but otherwise appears to be a very general technical treatment on implementing EST.

Thanks,
Alan
