Hi,
I'm running Geoserver 2.9.0 with embedded Jetty from Windows installer.
I have searched information about this topic and tested this by myself for a 
while without any success. Is it possible to control LayerGroups with GeoFence? 
I have tried both embedded and standalone versions without satisfying result, 
layerGroups are still visible with client. Connection between Geoserver and 
Geofence works fine. Notes below are from using Standalone version.

I have workspace "city" in Geoserver where I have built layers and layergroups. 
Layergroups are pointed to that "city"-workspace. The Layergroups are built 
with mode Single, Named tree and Container tree depending on its usage and some 
of them are nested. I have found this kind of behavior when limiting access 
with Geofence

Geofence: DENY everything on all workspace or DENY everything on "city" 
workspace

-          Only layergroups are visible but not accessible.

Geofence: ALLOW everything on all workspace or on "city" workspace for certain 
role

-          Layergroups and layers are visible and accessible for user with 
certain role.

-          Layergroups which are built with Single mode appears in correct 
Container tree Layergroup and also at the end of the list layers for user with 
certain role.

-          User without certain role for "city" workspaces layergroups are 
visible but not accessible.

Geofence: ALLOW one layer on "city" workspace for one user

-          All layergroups are visible but not accessible

-          One layer is visible and accessible

How does LIMIT parameter works for raster layers? Or for vector layers as well. 
I tried to define an area to be published from one certain raster layer. I used 
this Allowed Area parameter at Layer Limits

SRID=4326;MULTIPOLYGON (((24.94601815481079 60.133969115637946, 
24.945974007763702 60.160895510936726, 25 60.160906522783534, 25 
60.13398011556427, 24.94601815481079 60.133969115637946)))

Rule is successfully saved but without map output.

At the moment which version should be used, embedded or Standalone version? I 
found more parameters from LIMIT on Standalone which I think prefers to our 
purposes more.

Thanks for your answer

Best Regards
