Chapter 6. Securing the Management Console

Create an access management file called access-management.xml in <installDir>/etc/. The access management file must contain <allow-origin> sections within a <cors> section. The <allow-origin> section can contain the origin URL provided by browsers with the Origin: header, or a wildcard specification with *. For example:

<cors>
   <!-- Allow cross origin access from www.jolokia.org ... -->
   <allow-origin>http://www.jolokia.org</allow-origin>
   <!-- ... and all servers from jmx4perl.org with any protocol -->
   <allow-origin>*://*.jmx4perl.org</allow-origin>
   <!-- optionally allow access to web console from localhost -->
   <allow-origin>http://localhost:8181/*</allow-origin>
   <!-- Check for the proper origin on the server side, too -->
   <strict-checking/>
</cors>

Add the following line to Fuse config script ./bin/setenv, adding the path to the access management file.

export EXTRA_JAVA_OPTS='-Djolokia.policyLocation=file:etc/access-management.xml'

When the command ./bin/fuse is executed, the access management file is referenced and used to restrict access to the Fuse Management Console.
