============
NAME
----
zmq_plain - clear-text authentication
SYNOPSIS
--------
The PLAIN mechanism defines a simple username/password mechanism that
lets a server authenticate a client. PLAIN makes no attempt at security
or confidentiality. It is intended for use on internal networks where
security requirements are low. The PLAIN mechanism is defined by this
document: <http://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:24>.
USAGE
-----
To use PLAIN, the server shall set the ZMQ_PLAIN_SERVER option, and the
client shall set the ZMQ_PLAIN_USERNAME and ZMQ_PLAIN_PASSWORD socket
options. Which peer binds, and which connects, is not relevant.
