<para>The Qpid Broker can be defined as a collection of <emphasis>Virtual Hosts</emphasis> (independent containers of <emphasis>Queues</emphasis>,
<emphasis>Exchanges</emphasis>, etc) sharing the same authentication model provided by the broker <emphasis>Authentication Providers</emphasis>
and the transport model defined as <emphasis>Port</emphasis> configured objects. The authorization model is either provided by the broker
<emphasis>Access Control Providers</emphasis> or <emphasis>Access Control List</emphasis> defined on the <emphasis>Virtual Hosts</emphasis>.
The Broker also provides the management plugins to manage and configure Broker's and Virtual Hosts' configured objects.
Additionally, <emphasis>Keystores</emphasis> and <emphasis>Truststores</emphasis> can be defined on the broker level to configure Port SSL transports.
The <emphasis>Group Providers</emphasis> can be configured to use groups with <emphasis>ACL Providers</emphasis>.
