> The etc/broker_example.acl file currently contains an example of what users probably *dont* usually want to do with regards to logging ACL events for admin management users.
> By using ALLOW-LOG or DENY-LOG for all of the rules, this will have the result of logging a lot of extraneous info to do with individual JMX calls to retrieve attributes, get mbeaninfo, perform instanceof checks etc. Just having managemetn consoles (our own, Jconsole, etc) will produce a lot of log spam as a result when they poll for new info.
> What most users probably want typically is to allow 'read only' events by permissioning the 'ACCESS' operations using ALLOW and then seperately permission the others with ALLOW-LOG, thus removing the noise and ensuring only operations that can actually cause change are logged, e.g:
> {noformat}
> ACL ALLOW admin ACCESS METHOD
> ACL ALLOW-LOG admin ALL METHOD
> {noformat}
