Checking the authorization mode

Use the mqsireportauthmode command to display the authorization mode that is currently in effect for the integration node.

Read the following topics:

Administration authority can be controlled by using one of the following mechanisms:

WebSphere® MQ queues that are owned by a queue manager specified on the integration node.
File-based or LDAP permissions that are set using the mqsichangefileauth command.

You can use the mqsireportauthmode command to display the authorization mode that is currently in effect for the integration node.

WebSphere MQ

Run the mqsireportauthmode command to display the current authorization mode.
For example:
```
mqsireportauthmode IB10NODE 
```
The output from the command shows whether administration security is active or inactive, and whether the current authorization mode is file (file-based), mq (queue-based), or ldap (LDAP authorization).
