History

Sauron was one of three servers running VMware ESXi used to host JCIRN. It later served as the lab's primary DNS server. Sauron was chosen as the CSL's primary FreeIPA server over Utonium since it seemed more worthwhile to assign Utonium, the newer server, a more resource-heavy role managing VMs.
