Ken Giusti commented on QPID-1899:
----------------------------------

The SSF_EXTERNAL stuff doesn't appear to buy us anything: doing a sasl_getopts( 
SASL_SFF ) reports a negotiated ssf of zero, even if I set it to non-zero via 
sasl_setopts( SASL_SFF_EXTERNAL).  The client (perftest) logs that there is no 
security layer regardless, also:

So I don't see an advantage with the EXTERNAL stuff.  I'm fine with the current 
patch - let's go with that.

> If you specify --require-encryption and --auth no then the broker will allow 
> un-encrypted conections. (If on the other hand you have authentication on, it 
> will prevent you connecting with anything other than a mech that supports 
> encryption and will require an encrypting sasl security layer - or of course 
> an ssl connection)
