Thanks !
Giving this to FAR too :)
@Janos Matya: you are of course right. But we wanted to have at least a basic authorisation model in place on API before completly opening the administration part of Rudder to them, as described in http://www.rudder-project.org/redmine/issues/5798
But clearly, these are the two (authz & admin management) big missing part in API.
Editing the allowed networks is not a bigger security risk then deleting all nodes from rudder after creating a new rule that trashes all servers by dd'ing out all disks, and these can already be done by API calls :)
Well, if we had authz, we wouldn't have that problem :)
But agreed, that's more security theatre than anything else at that point.
