Security Authentication Overview

The exclusive microservice engine with security authentication enabled provides the system management function using the role-based access control (RBAC) through the microservice console. You can use an account associated with the admin role to create an account and associate a proper role with the account based on service requirements. The user who uses this account has the access and operation permissions on the microservice engine.

After security authentication is enabled for an exclusive microservice engine, all called APIs can be called only after a token is obtained. For details about the authentication process, see RBAC.

For an exclusive microservice engine with security authentication enabled, perform the following operations before using security authentication:

  1. Creating a Security Authentication Account and Password
  2. Configuring the Security Authentication Account and Password for a Microservice
  • Spring Cloud must integrate Spring Cloud Huawei 1.6.1 or later and Java chassis 2.3.5 or later to support security authentication.
  • The exclusive microservice engine with security authentication disabled is upgraded to the new version and security authentication is enabled. For details, see Managing Security Authentication for a Microservice Engine.
