---------------------------------------

             Summary: Negative SASL outome when "requireEncryption" isn't 
satisfied
                 Key: DISPATCH-347
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-347
             Project: Qpid Dispatch
          Issue Type: Wish
    Affects Versions: 0.6.0
            Reporter: Paolo Patierno
            Priority: Minor


If we configure the router with requireEncryption set to true but the client 
connect using a SASL mechanism which doesn't support encryption (i.e. 
ANONYMOUS, PLAIN, ...) the SASL exchange goes well with a successful outcome 
but the router close the TCP connection brutally after that.
The client doesn't have any reason why it happens.

The SASL RFC (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4422) in the "Authentication 
Outcome" says that "The outcome is not successful if ..." ... "the negotiated 
security layer (or lack thereof) is not suitable ...".
I think that above scenario is a "lack" of requested security so the SASL 
outcome to the client shouldn't be positive but negative.
