[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-1067) Integrate JGroups with core AS security infrastructure

[Richard Achmatowicz (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-1067?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13006948#comment-13006948 ] 

Richard Achmatowicz commented on WFLY-1067:
-------------------------------------------

It's also worth mentioning that there are certain authentication mechanisms which appear in JGroups and have no counterpart in the idea of realms. For example, authentication based on IP membership lists (you have to be in the list to be able to join) or regular expression constraints on IP addresses (your IP address has to match the regexp to be able to join). Not sure what the approach would be here: forgo the realm and just specify properties, or extend the realm to cater to the new configuration data.

> Container task for better integrating JGroups security with overall AS security. The basic concept is the various security aware aspects of JGroups will expose an SPI, and the AS can create implementations of those SPIs that integrate with the AS security realms. The AS JGroups subsystem will inject the implementation into the JGroups runtime components.
> Subtasks are for the various aspects. These can be done separately but a common overall design should be created to ensure a consistent approach is taken.
