RBAC Usecases

modified by Heiko Braun in JBoss AS 7 Development - View the full document

Some use cases to proof the concepts put into place.

 

 

Restricting access to server groups

 

Configuration: Server groups: "production", "staging". roles: "admin", "developer"

 

Goal: Restrict access to the production group to the "admin" role in to prevent messing with the production system

 

Implications: Server groups are part of the model but also a logical concept. I.e. restricting access to a group does imply preventing access to conceptually related entities like servers, deployments, etc.

 

Support clients & tools that provide their own security model

 

Configuration: See JON User Guide

 

Goal: Allow interaction with systems that provide their own authorization scheme

 

Implications: Systems like JON, that provide their own scheme currently can only operate the super user level
