Revision history [back]

By default there is no authentication enabled in rosbridge so any browser can connect. You can enable only authorized clients to connect by using rosauth (see GitHub for source code and this paper for details). The current implementation only checks for authentication, not authorization (i.e., different user levels). Although a field is passed along indicating the user lever specified from the client. This could be extended of course.
