Summary: Enable SPNEGO authentication for monitor
Key: ACCUMULO-3490
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-3490
Project: Accumulo
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: monitor
Reporter: Josh Elser
Assignee: Josh Elser
Fix For: 1.7.0
In non-technical terms, if we configure the monitor to support SPNEGO, we can
get KRB authentication of clients trying to connect to the Accumulo monitor.
This is a typical deployment decision made with Hadoop to protect things like
the NN overview page and the RM page.
Including some authentication for the monitor has some general benefit. It
would also be a neat integration with the shell servlet -- automatically log
you in and start using the shell in your web-browser.
