+summary: Prevent communication between hosts
+...
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+In some environments it is desirable to isolate one or more hosts, and
+prevent communication with external, or even other internal domains.
+
+Loading mod\_isolate\_host on a host will prevent all communication with
+JIDs outside of the current domain, though it is possible to configure
+exceptions.
+
+**Note:** if you just want to prevent communication with external
+domains, this is possible without a plugin. See [Prosody: Disabling
+s2s](http://prosody.im/doc/s2s#disabling) for more information.
+
+This module was sponsored by [Exa Networks](http://exa-networks.co.uk/).
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+To isolate all hosts by default, add the module to your global
+modules\_enabled:
+
+        modules_enabled = {
+            ...
+            "isolate_host";
+            ...
+        }
+
+Alternatively you can isolate a single host by putting a
+modules\_enabled line under the VirtualHost directive:
+
+        VirtualHost "example.com"
+            modules_enabled = { "isolate_host" }
+
+After enabling the module, you can add further options to add exceptions
+for the isolation:
+
+  Option                     Description
+  -------------------------- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+  isolate\_except\_domains   A list of domains to allow communication with.
+  isolate\_except\_users     A list of user JIDs allowed to bypass the isolation and communicate with other domains.
+
+**Note:** Admins of hosts are always allowed to communicate with other
+domains
