Arthur Naseef commented on AMQ-3154:
------------------------------------
Working on a JUnit, I'm finding it difficult to capture whether the broker
connection was made or not. Subclassing DiscoveryNetworkConnector seemed like
a good idea, but even it doesn't appear to have a clear point in its lifecycle
at which the success or failure of the connection can be determined.
Any tips would be appreciated.
While it would be possible to create a consumer and producer that use the two
different brokers, I'd rather not add that complexity.
Note that I'm working purely with 5.4.2 at this point.

> Key: AMQ-3154
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-3154
> Project: ActiveMQ
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Broker
> Affects Versions: 5.4.2
> Reporter: Arthur Naseef
> Attachments: pre_add_broker.patch
>
>
> Ran into the following issues preventing a custom Broker-To-Broker
> authentication implementation:
> - BrokerFilter's addBroker() can not be used to secure a connection:
> - for duplex connections, it is never called on the initial conneciton
> - even if addBroker() throws an exception, it does not deny access (it
> does not close the connection nor prevent other functioning)
> - addBroker() does not have direct access to the ConnectionContext, nor
> any other means for the BrokerFilter to access SSL certificates on the SSL
> transport
> - BrokerFilter's addConnection() can not be used to secure a connection:
> - there is no way to distinguish broker connections from clients
> Other approaches were considered, but lead to dead-ends.
> It seems the optimal solution would use the existing addBroker() method.
> A patch will be provided that adds a new method specifically for securing
> Broker-To-Broker connections.
