I'm not sure what you mean by delegated here?

SSH access should be delegated on rare cases such as initial Apache Brooklyn setup and other maintenance occasions.

Avoid putting config a lot of options in `etc/brooklyn.cfg` which one would later need to ssh and change.
Keep location configuration it is preferable to use [Locations in the Catalog](./catalog/#locations-in-the-catalog).

I think these two lines need rewording but I'm not sure what they're adding. etc/brooklyn.cfg is a config file in the Karaf Brooklyn distro which is not currently the default. I'm not sure we're advising people put locations in there anywhere.

 Ssh access should be strongly limited.
