The other challenge of utilizing Keystone is which one to use.  Fuel enables
the deployment of multiple cloud environments from one UI; so when accessing
the Fuel Master Node, it would be ambiguous which already deployed Keystone
to contact for authentication.  If/When Triple-O is utilized, one could
perhaps see designating the Keystone of the undercloud; but that¹s more a
future requirement.

For now, I¹d suggest an internal authentication in the immediate short term.
External auth sources can be added in future milestones ­ most likely an
LDAP source that¹s outside the deployed clouds and designated by IT.

Thanks,

I would suggest both an internal authentication database and the option of
plugging additional options in, with keystone being one of them and perhaps
something like oauth being another.

Keystone may not be available at the time of the build, or accessible from
the network that's used for the initial build.
