Manage Security
AMPS provides modules for managing the security features of an instance.
Authentication and entitlement can be enabled or disabled, which is useful for debugging or auditing purposes. You can also reset security and authentication, which clears the AMPS internal caches and gives security and authentication modules the opportunity to reinitialize themselves, for example, by re-parsing an entitlements file.
AMPS loads the following modules by default:
amps-action-do-disable-authentication
Disables authentication for the instance.
amps-action-do-disable-entitlement
Disables entitlement for the instance.
amps-action-do-enable-authentication
Enables authentication for the instance.
amps-action-do-enable-entitlement
Enables entitlement for the instance.
amps-action-do-reset-authentication
Resets authentication by clearing AMPS caches and reinitializing authentication.
amps-action-do-reset-entitlement
Resets entitlement by clearing AMPS caches and reinitializing entitlement.
These modules require no parameters. The amps-action-do-reset-authentication module and the amps-action-do-reset-entitlement module accept an optional Transport parameter which specifies the transport to reset.
Transport
The name of the transport for which to reset authentication or entitlements.
If no name is provided, these modules affect all transports.
AuthenticationId
The authentication ID of the client for which to reset entitlements.
If no ID is provided, these modules affect all clients.
These modules do not add any variables to the AMPS context.
