Interface OncRpcServerAuthScheme

public interface OncRpcServerAuthScheme
Implementing this interface enables the definition of a custom authentication scheme, which is intended to be provided by an ONC/RPC server.

Defining an authentication scheme requires both, providing the authentication type (flavor) identified numerically and providing appropriate handler instances implementing the interface OncRpcServerAuth.
