What functions can an anonymous user compared to registered user?

Hi,

I’m investigating what can anonymous user do compared to a registered user with our custom xmpp client.

Where is the anonymous user related data stored? only in the memory or in a temp table in the database?

Can an anonymous user send and get presence? Can he have a roster while he is connected and will this roster be deleted when he log off?

Are the differences between registered users and anonymous users specified in the specs or is it up to the server to decide?

Thanks

It depends on your server settings. I set mine so anonymous users can’t do anything.

How to you set your server to give anonymous users permission to do anything?

What about roster managment for example? How does openfire handle this for anonymous users?

Thanks
