So far we've recommended people who want a non-federated synapse to disable inbound federation by removing the federation listener. However, in practice it seems that the synapse may will emit outbound federated traffic (e.g. for invites) which will never complete. Having a config option to cleanly and completely disable federation seems like a no-brainer. I thought we already had an ancient 2014-vintage bug for this, but can't find it anywhere.

As of #2820 you can put the following in your config:

federation_domain_whitelist:
- chat1.example.com
- chat2.example.com
- <otherServerName>
