Sam Tunnicliffe resolved CASSANDRA-8068.
----------------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
The IAuthenticator interface is already quite significantly changed by
CASSANDRA-7653 and as there doesn't seem to be a really compelling use case for
this, closing it as wontfix. Feel free to re-open if there's a genuine
requirement.
> Allow to create authenticator which is aware of the client connection

> Key: CASSANDRA-8068
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8068
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Jacek Lewandowski
> Assignee: Jacek Lewandowski
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: security
>
> Currently, the authenticator interface doesn't allow to make a decision
> according to the client connection properties (especially the client host
> name or address).
> The idea is to add the interface which extends the current SASL aware
> authenticator interface with additional method to set the client connection.
> ServerConnection then could supply the connection to the authenticator if the
> authenticator implements that interface.
