Larry McCay commented on KNOX-528:
----------------------------------
Yes, [~mcparlandjcgi] - we want to NOT specify a particular provider name.
That mechanism is for forcing the provider for a given service definition to
always be that particular one.
Anonymous means that Knox will allow the request through without authentication
(anonymously) however the backend service may handle authentication itself.
This is what is done by applications like Ambari, Ranger, etc.
Hadoop provider allows for SPNEGO/kerberos and delegation token authentication.
Shiro will be the most common but you don't want to limit it.
Therefore, just specific authentication with no name.
