Each REST request needs to be authenticated as there is no session in REST. The REST client is first authenticated with the SBC Core series REST service by encoding the credentials in the required format. Users must be granted permission to perform REST queries.

Use the following parameters to restrict/allow user access to the traditional and/or REST interfaces:

  • Allow Interactive Access: Use this parameter to allow/deny access to the traditional north bound interfaces such as EMA and CLI. Options are: true (default) / false
  • Allow MTM Access: Use this parameter to allow/deny machine-to-machine access through north bound interfaces. Currently the only MTM interface in the SBC is REST. Options are: true / false (default)

Configure a user with REST-only access by setting Allow Interactive Access to “false” and Allow MTM Access to “true.”
