Permission Control Overview

A Nacos engine may be used by many users. Exclusive Nacos engines with security authentication enabled provide permissions management using role-based access control (RBAC) on the microservice console, so that users have different engine access and operation permissions based on their responsibilities and permissions.

The exclusive Nacos engine with security authentication enabled supports microservice access.

  • Only engine 2.1.0.1 and later support this function. For engine earlier than 2.1.0.1, upgrade it to the latest version. For details, see Upgrading a Nacos Engine.
  • If the Nacos engine version is upgraded from 2.1.0 to 2.1.0.1 or later, you need to enable security authentication to initialize the key information before using the permission control function.
  • Eureka-compatible instances do not support security authentication.
