 ## Limitations
 
 The remote cluster state functionality has the following limitations:
 - Unsafe bootstrap scripts cannot be run when the remote cluster state is enabled. When a majority of cluster-manager nodes are lost and the cluster goes down, the user needs to replace any remaining cluster manager nodes and reseed the nodes in order to bootstrap a new cluster.
+
+## Remote cluster state publication
+
+
+The cluster manager node processes updates to the cluster state. It then publishes the updated cluster state over the local transport layer to all of the follower nodes. With the `remote_store.publication` feature enabled, the cluster state is backed up to the remote store with every state update. The follower nodes can then fetch the state from the remote store directly which reduces the overhead on the cluster manager node for publication. 
+
+To enable the feature flag for the `remote_store.publication` feature follow the steps in [experimental feature flag documentation]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/install-and-configure/configuring-opensearch/experimental/).
+
+Enabling the setting does not change the publication flow and follower nodes will not send acknowledgements back to the cluster manager 
+until they download the updated cluster state from the remote store.
+
+Enabling the remote cluster state feature is mandatory for remote publication to work. The routing tables repository settings contains the shard allocation details for each index in the cluster state. You can configure the remote table repository by using following settings:
+
+```yml
+# Remote routing table repository settings
+node.attr.remote_store.routing_table.repository: my-remote-routing-table-repo
+node.attr.remote_store.repository.my-remote-routing-table-repo.type: s3
+node.attr.remote_store.repository.my-remote-routing-table-repo.settings.bucket: <Bucket Name 3>
+node.attr.remote_store.repository.my-remote-routing-table-repo.settings.region: <Bucket region>
+```
+
+You do not have to use different remote store repositories for state and routing, since both state and routing can use the same repository settings.
+
+To configure remote publication, use the following cluster settings:
+
+Setting | Default | Description
+:--- | :--- | :---
+`cluster.remote_store.state.read_timeout` | 20s | The amount of time to wait for remote state download to complete on the follower node.
+`cluster.remote_store.routing_table.path_type` | HASHED_PREFIX | Path type to be used for creating index routing path in blob store. Valid values are "FIXED", "HASHED_PREFIX", "HASHED_INFIX"
+`cluster.remote_store.routing_table.path_hash_algo` | FNV_1A_BASE64 | Algorithm to be used for constructing prefix or infix of blob store path. This setting comes into effect into if cluster.remote_store.routing_table.path_type is "hashed_prefix" or "hashed_infix". Valid values of algorithm are "FNV_1A_BASE64" or "FNV_1A_COMPOSITE_1"
