Cassandra configuration - is native transport necessary on all cluster nodes?

Does Cassandra require both of the following options to be on?

start_native_transport:                 true
start_rpc:                              true

Are these required on all Cassandra nodes?

As far as I can tell, the purpose of each is thus:

* native transport - for servicing CQL clients
* rpc - for cluster inter node communication

are these correct? If they are, I guess I should enable rpc on all nodes, and perhaps native transport on only one node? Is this correct?

The native transport is the CQL Native Protocol (as opposed to the Thrift Protocol) and is the way all modern Cassandra Driver's communicate with the server. This includes all reads/writes/schemachanges/etc

Hence you cannot make start_native_transport as false.
