> Key: GUACAMOLE-629
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-629

> Fix For: 2.0.0

>
> The Guacamole protocol as designed currently imposes limitations on the
> configuration of a connection:
> # Connection configuration can be applied only during the initial protocol
> handshake. If the user wishes to change aspects of the connection while the
> connection is in progress, such as to alter the terminal appearance or
> provide a username/password in response to a request from the remote desktop
> server, this cannot be done.
> # Connection parameters are inherently limited by the maximum length of an
> instruction element and the overall maximum length of instructions. Providing
> lengthy SSH keys for authentication, for example, is problematic
> (GUACAMOLE-350).
> With relatively minor changes to the Guacamole protocol, the above
> limitations can be addressed. By sending connection parameters using
> streaming instructions rather than as elements of a single, monolithic
> "connect" instruction, parameter values can have unlimited length. By
> extending the use of that parameter streaming instruction such that it can be
> used both during a connection and during the handshake, protocol plugins can
> choose to allow certain parameters to be set or updated while the connection
> is in progress.
