Alan Conway created DISPATCH-958:
------------------------------------
Summary: Lacking documentation on authorization, authentication
and SSL.
Key: DISPATCH-958
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-958
Project: Qpid Dispatch
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation
Affects Versions: 1.0.1
Reporter: Alan Conway
All the configuration attributes related to security are well documented, but
it's not at all easy to figure out which attributes you need to set in order to
create basic secure configurations.
Suggest adding a section to chapter 3 of the dispatch book showing how to
configure:
* Entirely insecure router for trusted network/development work
* Simple SSL
* SASL PLAIN+SSL for simple secure authentication.
* allow-insecure+PLAIN (no SSL) for simple auth in a trusted network/dev env.
* at least one of SASL's distributed auth mechansims (Kerberos, LDAP)
We don't want to document everything about SASL, but we do need to show all the
ways it can be used from dispatch - at least enough so people can look at e.g.
an LDAP dispatch example and then use SASL/Kerb docs to figure out how to turn
that into appropriate Kerberos config etc.
