Overview

This authentication method allows the users to connect anonymously.

Configuration options

auth.anonymous.allow_multiple_connections

• Syntax: boolean
• Default: false
• Example: allow_multiple_connections = true

Specifies the SASL mechanisms supported by the anonymous authentication method:

• sasl_anon - support only the the ANONYMOUS mechanism,
• login_anon - support the non-anonymous mechanisms (PLAIN, DIGEST-MD5, SCRAM-*),
• both - support both types of mechanisms.

  methods = ["anonymous"]

  [auth.anonymous]
    allow_multiple_connections = true
    protocol = "both"
