----------------------------------------

                 Key: FELIX-1764
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-1764
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Web Console
    Affects Versions: webconsole-2.0.0
            Reporter: Felix Meschberger
             Fix For: webconsole-2.0.2


Currently the web console only support HTTP BASIC authentication with its own 
"user management". There is no way of supporting multiple users with varying 
access rights.

Some applications already have infrastructure to authenticate users and/or to 
define access control, such as JAAS, OSGi User Admin or other ...

Guillaume Nodet in [1] proposed a service interface to plug such access 
control. The Web Console should be enhance to support this service API and fall 
back to the current setup if no service is available.
