             Summary: Ability to scope cookies to a given Path
                 Key: KNOX-911
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-911
             Project: Apache Knox
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: Attila Kanto


If there are multiple individual Knox instances behind of a reverse proxy, then 
it would be very useful if the Cookies could be scoped to a given Path.

If a reverse proxy is put at the font of multiple Knox instances then scoping 
the Cookies to domain is not sufficient since the /gateway1/... and 
/gateway2/... cookies will overwrite each other.

Proposal:
Cookies can be scoped with  Set-Cookie: Path=/somepath header field. 

It would be very convenient if this scope path could be set in gateway-site.xml 
and Knox would return it in Set-Cookie header field to clients.
