Closing connections from server with specific token, if token is no longer valid

[ernestoreloaded]

How can i close active connections if a token is no longer valid? The novnc console no longer works if i open the url with the token in a new tab, but prior to token invalidation already opened consoles are still functioning and still connected via websockets. I can close the novnc console client side, but it would be better closing the websocket connections server side.

I don't think there's a particularly good way to do this at the moment. I'm curious as to what your use case is -- is there a case where you want someone to stop being able to use the socket while it remains open?

The use case: Our frontend application checks every few seconds if there is a change in the state of the backend. So in the first tab we login, go to the instance console (this is put in an iframe). In a second tab we open the same application (we are already logged in). From this tab we logout. In the first tab since the application is checking whether there has been a state change in the backend, it detects that we have logged out, so it displays a login dialog, but the console still remains in background. We could delete the iframe, but would the websocket connection be still active or not?

Other possibility: If we could send the token to the server to disconnect all existing connections, which use this token
