A Nazara host is a gateway to accessing other hosts. It is a safeguard against admin error.

Etymology

Nazara hosts are named because they are the first line of defense against administrative error -- they prevent admins from being locked out of correcting their changes and are connected to everything in the ecosystem. They also control DNS, which allows a sort of subliminal control of the entire ecosystem. This is akin to the mastermind Reaper AI from the Mass Effect franchise, and in fact can be the extinction of any DNS-enabled malware in the ecosystem by sinkholing the Command-and-Control.

Capacity and Components

A Nazara host needs minimal CPU or memory.

Hosted Services and Entities

Nazara should host a Pihole installation and SSH. It should be NAT'ed to an obscure port to the outside world.

Connections

Any host should be able to connect to a Nazara with SSH and X11, and it should be able to dial to any service provider.

Additional Reference

Nazara hosts should be deployed alongside any Hypervisor. They can be as simple as a Pi-hole with SSH access, and they should be allowed to receive SSH connections from a non-tcp/22/ssh port.
