Overview

The Client Control plugin allows to specify which XMPP clients are allowed to connect to the server, whichclient features are enabled and control which Spark version should be used by the users.

Note: Filtering clients that are allowed to connect to the server depends on the identity presentedby the client. Therefore, a client that was modified to appear as another XMPP client may connect to theserver. However, only sophisticated and knowledgeable users may be able to do such modification.

Client Features

Please note that it's necessary for the following client features to operate in a locally cached manner since these values are not yet accessible to the unauthenticated client:

• Account Registration
