# Permissioning
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A permissioned network is a network where only specified nodes and accounts (participants) can participate.
|
||
|
|
Nodes and accounts outside those specified are prevented from participating. Permissioned networks can have node permissioning enabled,
|
||
|
|
account permissioning enabled, or both.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Local
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[Local permissioning](Local-Permissioning.md) are specified at the node level. Each node in the network has a [permissions configuration file](#permissions-configuration-file).
|
||
|
|
Updates to local permissioning must be made to the configuration file for each node.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Onchain
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Onchain permissioning are specified in a smart contract on the network. Specifying permissioning onchain
|
||
|
|
enables all nodes to read and update permissioning in one location.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
!!! note
|
||
|
|
Onchain permissioning for nodes is under development and will be available in v1.1. Onchain permissioning
|
||
|
|
for accounts will be available in a future Pantheon release.
