Summary

ACServer is the access control server that is used by ACNodes (work it out!) to query weather the owner of a presented rfid card has access to the tool and what level of access he/she has. The codebase lives on our github repo.

TODO

  • All issues on the ascerver repository.
  • Code a web ui for adding tools/maintainers/nodes (mentar+levi?)

Current deployment

  • acserver:1234 current install, purpose built VM running on lamarr.
  • babbage:1234 legacy install only used by the 3-in-1 acnode, which was the first revision
