Jimmy Xiang updated HBASE-8662:
-------------------------------

    Release Note: 
With the patch, if "hbase.rest.authentication.type" is set to "kerberos" and 
security is turned on, REST server will impersonate the authenticated user in 
access HBase.

The RPC layer proxy user settings should be configured properly to allow 
impersonation.
