             Summary: Support two-way SSL authentication in unsecured(without kerberos) Ranger HA environment
                 Key: RANGER-1212
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-1212
             Project: Ranger
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Ranger
    Affects Versions: 0.6.0, 0.7.0
            Reporter: Pradeep Agrawal
            Assignee: Pradeep Agrawal


Support two-way SSL authentication in Ranger HA environment where SSL is enabled at Ranger end but Ranger is unsecured(Kerberos Authentication is disabled).

Problem Statement : If SSL is enabled in Ranger HA environment then load balancer doesn't forward client certificate to Ranger and Authentication fails due to certificate issue. In SSL environment usually client sends SSL certificate with request attribute to Ranger for authentication but whenever such request is sent via load balancer; load balancer could not pass the received certificate to Ranger and authentication fails.

Note : This is happening only in an unsecured environment as client certificate is mandatory at Ranger end; while in the secured environment, authentication is done through Kerberos ticket so client certificate is not required.
