Authentication

Authentication verifies the identities of components within the cluster such as peers, clients, and those connecting to a JMX manager.

• Implementing Authentication

  All components of the cluster authenticate the same way, through a custom-written method.

• Authentication Example

  The example demonstrates the basics of an implementation of the SecurityManager.authenticate method.

• Implementing Authentication Expiry

  Client credentials can be given a limited life time to enhance the security of the cluster.
