h1. Management API Security
h2. Introduction
The purpose of this document is to capture the requirements, considerations and desicions regarding the securing access to the management APIs for managing or monitoring both standalone JBoss AS7 installations and complete JBoss AS7 domains.

At a high level the JBoss AS7 domains will be managed by a single domain controller, the hosts will then establish a connection with this domain controller to recieve their management operations to be performed on the host or servers running on that host.  In addition to this there is also the possibility for clients to connect directly to hosts to retrieve state from those running hosts and their servers.

The standalone AS7 installations will have all of this combined into a single process, however the same management APIs will be exposed and the same operations possible in the context of a single standalone installation (i.e. operations such as starting a server on a remote host will no longer be applicable).
