var Cell = cell.Module(
	"auth-manager",
	"Authenticates requests as demanded by policy",

	cell.Provide(newManager),
	cell.ProvidePrivate(

		newCtMapAuthenticator,

	cell.Config(config{MeshAuthMonitorQueueSize: 1024}),
)

Cell provides the auth.Manager which is responsible for request authentication. It does this, by implementing consumer.MonitorConsumer and reacting upon monitor.DropNotify events with reason flow.DropReason_AUTH_REQUIRED. The actual authentication gets performed by an auth handler which is responsible for the configured auth type on the corresponding policy.
