All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Default Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`DCPermissions`	`authorize(RoleResource role)`	Returns the dc permissions associated with the given role
`void`	`drop(RoleResource role)`	Called when a role is deleted, so any corresponding network permissions data can also be cleaned up

`void`	`setRoleDatacenters(RoleResource role, DCPermissions permissions)`
`void`	`setup()`	Setup is called once upon system startup to initialize the INetworkAuthorizer.

- Method Detail
  - requireAuthorization
```
default boolean requireAuthorization()
```
    Whether or not the authorizer will attempt authorization. If false the authorizer will not be called for authorization of resources.
  - setup
```
void setup()
```
    Setup is called once upon system startup to initialize the INetworkAuthorizer. For example, use this method to create any required keyspaces/column families.
  - authorize
```
DCPermissions authorize(RoleResource role)
```
    Returns the dc permissions associated with the given role
  - setRoleDatacenters
```
void setRoleDatacenters(RoleResource role,
                        DCPermissions permissions)
```
  - drop
```
void drop(RoleResource role)
```
    Called when a role is deleted, so any corresponding network permissions data can also be cleaned up
  - validateConfiguration
```
void validateConfiguration()
                    throws ConfigurationException
```
    Validates configuration of IAuthorizer implementation (if configurable).
    
    Throws:
    
    ConfigurationException - when there is a configuration error.
