             Summary: AuthenticationConfiguration should support specifying the 'protocol' for mechanism creation.
                 Key: ELY-764
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ELY-764
             Project: WildFly Elytron
          Issue Type: Enhancement
          Components: Authentication Client
            Reporter: Darran Lofthouse
            Assignee: Darran Lofthouse
             Fix For: 1.1.0.Beta15


Some mechanisms make use of this to verify the server and may require an override.

As an example for Kerberos a server would commonly have an identity HTTP/server-name.

Whilst an administrator may be able to map this to REMOTE+HTTP/server-name they may prefer to override the SASL mechanisms expectation and set protocol to HTTP.
