[jira] [Commented] (MESOS-5872) Consolidate authentication-related flags

["Adam B (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-5872?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15386266#comment-15386266 ] 

Adam B commented on MESOS-5872:
-------------------------------

authenticatee, authentication_backoff_factor, and credential (singular) only apply to the agent when it authenticates to the master, so let's not bundle that in with the authenticators config.

> Mesos currently has quite a few flags related to authentication:
> {code}
> --authenticate_http
> --authenticate_http_frameworks
> --authenticate_frameworks
> --authenticate_agents
> --authenticators
> --http_framework_authenticators
> --authenticatee
> --authentication_backoff_factor
> --credentials
> --credential
> --http_credentials
> {code}
> It would clean up our interface to consolidate these into a single flag. This flag could accept a JSON blob or some kind of delimited string which allows the operator to enable authentication, set authenticators, and set credentials for the various cases.
