# Authorization

Enables or disables server authorization.

Authorization is disabled by default. If you require that the server verify user credentials and permissions on secure destinations, you must enable this property.

## Classic Configuration

Authorization is set using the authorization property in the tibemsd.conf file. For example:

    authorization = enabled

## Administration Tool

Set Authorization

      set server authorization=enabled|disabled

  After a transition from disabled to enabled, the server checks ACL permissions for all subsequent requests. While the server requires valid authentication for existing producers and consumers, it does not retroactively reauthenticate them; it denies access to users without valid prior authentication.
View Authorization

      show server (aliases: info, i)

  Shows server name and information about the connected server.
