> HBase configuration 'hbase.rpc.protection' can be set to 'authentication',
> 'integrity' or 'privacy'.
> "authentication means authentication only and no integrity or privacy;
> integrity implies
> authentication and integrity are enabled; and privacy implies all of
> authentication, integrity and privacy are enabled."
> However hbase ref guide incorrectly suggests in some places to set the value
> to 'auth-conf' instead of 'privacy'. Setting value to 'auth-conf' doesn't
> provide rpc encryption which is what user wants.
> This jira will fix:
> - documentation: change 'auth-conf' references to 'privacy'
> - SaslUtil to support both set of values (privacy/integrity/authentication
> and auth-conf/auth-int/auth) to be backward compatible with what was being
> suggested till now.
> - change 'hbase.thrift.security.qop' to be consistent with other similar
> configurations by using same set of values (privacy/integrity/authentication).
