Summary

Members	Descriptions
String getToken()	Returns the entitlement token of the client.
String getClientAddress()	Returns the IP address of the client.
Map< String, Object > getAdditionalInfo()	Returns additional attributes of the client as a map of key/value pairs.

void sendStatusNotification(StatusNotification notification)

Send a status notification to the client.

For example, if the token of the client is about to expire, then you can send a status notification to the client, so it can renew its token.

void disconnect()

Call this method to disconnect the client.

For example, if the token of the client expires, and no renewed token is received, then the client should be disconnected using this method.
