InfoCenter Home > 6.6.18.1a.2: About setting application security defaults with the Java administrative consoleConfigure Global Settings task:
Use the Application Defaults tab of the Configure Global Settings wizard to specify the default security realm and challenge type for applications. These values provide a starting configuration for applications, but some can be refined on an application-by-application basis. For example, you can set a default challenge type for authentication but allow some applications to use different challenge types. Selecting a default security realmAll applications need to belong to a security realm. In Version 3, all applications must belong to the same security realm. The administrator can specify a default realm. When a particular application is configured, the administrator can override the default realm by specifying a different realm for the application. Single Sign-On (SSO) support is applied to realms. If a user who has logged on to one realm tries to access an application in another realm, the user will be prompted to log into the second realm. Selecting a default challenge typeThe challenge type specifies how users will be challenged for authentication credentials when they try to access a resource or application. Challenge types range from no challenge, a user ID and password, or a digital certificate to a custom challenge using Web pages. |
