HAI Use Case: Administrator Logs into the Hyrax Admin Interface
Point Of Contact: Nathan Potter
Description
The administrator logs into the Hyrax Admin Interface.
Goal
Provide a secure login and session for Administrators to operate the Hyrax Admin Interface.
Summary
The Administrator uses a web browser to access the URL for the Hyrax Admin Interface. When accessed the server returns a secure authentication challenge. Once the Administrator has provided correct authentication credentials all subsequent interactions with the HAI are secure (encrypted) until the session times out or the Administrator logs off.
Actors
- Administrator
Preconditions
The Administrator has access too, and authentication credentials for, a running Hyrax server.
Triggers
One or more of:
- Hyrax needs re configuration.
- Hyrax needs to be restarted.
- The Administrator needs/wants to view the Hyrax logs.
Basic Flow
- The Administrator points their browser at the URL for their HAI.
# The HAI returns a secure page containing an authentication challenge.
- The Administrator enters their authentication credentials.
- From this point on all pages sent from the HAI to the Administrator are secured through encryption (https??)
- The HAI returns it's home page.
Alternate Flow
Here we give any alternate flows that might occur. May include flows that involve error conditions. Or flows that fall outside of the basic flow.
Post Conditions
Here we give any conditions that will be true of the state of the system after the use case has been completed.
Activity Diagram
Here a diagram is given to show the flow of events that surrounds the use case.
Notes
There is always some piece of information that is required that has no other place to go. This is the place for that information.
