 Using HTTPD authentication

Webservers like Apache HTTP support many methods of authentication. Keystone can profit from this feature and let the authentication be done in the webserver, that will pass down the authenticated user to Keystone using the REMOTE_USER environment variable. This user must exist in advance in the identity backend so as to get a token from the controller. To use this method, OpenStack Identity should be running on apache-httpd.
