             Summary: Implement a mechanism which allows access control of 
endpoints
                 Key: MESOS-2620
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-2620
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Alexander Rojas
            Assignee: Alexander Rojas


h2. Rationale
As is currently implemented, libprocess processes are able to provide HTTP 
endpoints to serve some client's requests. Any security requirement are left to 
the actual endpoint handler to be implemented. Moreover, some common security 
checks (e.g., requiring the connection to be perform over a secure channel or 
controlling the source of the connection) cannot be performed at all since this 
attributes are not made available to the endpoint's handlers.

h2. Goal
Implement a mechanism which allows users of libprocess to install _firewall_ 
like rules which can be easily applied to any incoming connection, decoupling 
the endpoint's handler from the security layer.

Provide at least on rule which allow the selective disabling of endpoints. This 
also requires mesos users to be able to manipule such rules.
