Cheers. Is bugzilla the preferred way to submit documentation errata, rather
than docfeedback at gluster.com ?
http://download.gluster.com/pub/gluster/glusterfs/3.2/Documentation/AG/html/pr01s04.html

I noticed that the firewall examples at
http://download.gluster.com/pub/gluster/glusterfs/3.2/Documentation/IG/html/chap-Installation_Guide-Installing.html#sect-Installation_Guide-Installing-RPM
and at
http://download.gluster.com/pub/gluster/glusterfs/3.2/Documentation/IG/html/sect-Installation_Guide-Installing-Source.html
appear to contradict each other.

The first says:

"Ensure that TCP ports 111, 24007, 24008, 24009 (24009 + number of bricks across all volumes) are open on all Gluster servers. If you will be using NFS, open additional ports 38465 to 38467.
You can use the following chains with iptables:
$ iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 24007:24047 -j ACCEPT 
$ iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 111 -j ACCEPT 
$ iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 111 -j ACCEPT 
$ iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 38465:38467 -j ACCEPT
$ service iptables save
$ service iptables restart

Note
You need one open port, starting at 24009 for each brick. This example opens enough ports for 20 storage servers and three bricks."

The second says:

"Ensure that TCP ports 111, 24007,24008, 24009-(24009 + number of bricks across all volumes) are open on all Gluster servers. If you will be using NFS, open additional ports 38465-(38465 + number of Gluster servers).
You can use the following chains with iptables:
$ iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 24007:24011 -j ACCEPT 
$ iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 111 -j ACCEPT 
$ iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 111 -j ACCEPT 
$ iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 38465:38485 -j ACCEPT
$ service iptables save
$ service iptables restart
Note
You need one open port, starting at 38465 and incrementing sequentially for each Gluster storage server, and one port, starting at 24009 for each bricks. This example opens enough ports for 20 storage servers and three bricks."

The iptables examples disagree both on the range of ports required from
24009 (41 vs 5) and the number of ports required from 38465 (3 vs 21)

I also think it would be clearer if it said "20 storage servers each with 3
bricks" rather than "20 storage servers and 3 bricks"
