ZMQ_PLAIN(7)                      0MQ Manual                      ZMQ_PLAIN(7)

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.
