The Naming subsystem provides the JNDI implementation on WildFly, and
its configuration allows you to:

* bind entries in global JNDI namespaces
* turn off/on the remote JNDI interface

The subsystem name is naming and this document covers Naming subsystem
version `2.0`, which XML namespace within WildFly XML configurations is
`urn:jboss:domain:naming:2.0`. The path for the subsystem's XML schema,
within WildFly's distribution, is `docs/schema/jboss-as-naming_2_0.xsd`.
