Haohui Mai commented on HDFS-5382:
----------------------------------
You won't be able to browse the filesystem whenever webhdfs is turned off.
When security is on, the administrator needs a principal to access the web UI.
The patch uses the same principal to browse the filesystem via webHDFS.
> Implement the UI of browsing filesystems in HTML 5 page
