            <title>[DOCS-9968] Document how to enable authentication in a new replica set deployment</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/DOCS-9968</link>
                <project id="10380" key="DOCS">Documentation</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;The security docs regarding &quot;enabling access control for a NEW replica set&quot; has led to some confusion in the community, leading to some people believing there is a mistake or a missed step in creating their new replica set deployment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Although the tutorial &lt;a href=&quot;https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/enable-authentication/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;enable auth&lt;/a&gt; explicitly mentions how to enable internal authentication, users have been searching for how to deploy a replica set with &lt;tt&gt;auth&lt;/tt&gt; enabled. For new MongoDB users, it&apos;s difficult to make the connection between &lt;tt&gt;auth&lt;/tt&gt; and &lt;tt&gt;internal authentication&lt;/tt&gt; concepts.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Some users believe that the documentation is not highlighting that &quot;a replica set deployment needs internal authentication between members when access control is enabled&quot;. Some examples:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mongodb-user/9xTL6ruKeTQ&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mongodb-user/9xTL6ruKeTQ&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mongodb-user/Fowgh28ZucA&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mongodb-user/Fowgh28ZucA&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I believe this part of the documentation could be improved, for example we could add:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;A tutorial page on how to deploy a NEW replica set with user authentication&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;A link to the &lt;a href=&quot;https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/core/security-internal-authentication/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;Internal Authentication&lt;/a&gt; in the &lt;a href=&quot;https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/enable-authentication/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;Enable Auth&lt;/a&gt; page, with a text of e.g. &quot;To enable auth on a new replica set deployment, please see Internal Authentication&quot;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;A prominent information box in the &lt;a href=&quot;https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/enable-authentication/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;Enable Auth&lt;/a&gt; documentation that in case of a replica set, internal authentication will need to be enabled.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
