Configuring outbound mapping to a different target realm

By default, when WebSphere Application Server makes an outbound request from one server to another server in a different security realm, the request is rejected. This topic details alternatives for enabling one server to send outbound requests to a target server in a different realm.

About this task

This outbound request is rejected to protect against a rogue server reading potentially sensitive information if successfully impersonating the home of the object. Select one of the following alternative procedures so that one server can send outbound requests to a target server in a different realm. When you are finished with a procedure on the administrative console, click Apply.
