Sure Richard.

Currently we have three physical regions hosted internally - West Coast,
East Coast and Eurozone (I'm suspecting an APAC region is coming shortly).
Ultimate goal is public access. I'm currently in the process of
building/placing two proxies in each region for HA and defining one zone
per region for now. I know Swift assumes one region by default but I
haven't found the region settings yet so until I find those and manage to
segment by region, I'm relying on the default Region1 and
separately-defined zones for the time being.

Does that help? Currently everything is in a geo-disperse virtual
development environment until the physical hardware arrives.

Is that what you were wondering or actual configuration file settings? I'll
share what I can safely when I get regions sorted out but I'm not sure how
much I can anyway given the iron-clad NDA I'm operating under. Pretty sure
that even deployment strategy is considered protected IP.
