Specifies the name of the user with administrative privileges that is defined in the repository, for example, adminUser.
Use this page to manage the realm. The realm can consist of identities in the file-based repository that is built into the system, in one or more external repositories, or in both the built-in, file-based repository and one or more external repositories.
When you finish adding or updating your federated repository configuration, go to the Security > Secure administration, applications, and infrastructure panel and click Apply to validate the changes.
A single built-in, file-based repository is built into the system and included in the realm by default.
You can configure one or more Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) repositories to store identities in the realm. Click Add base entry to realm to specify a repository configuration and a base entry into the realm. You can configure multiple different base entries into the same repository.
WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1 distinguishes between the user identities for administrators who manage the environment and server identities for authenticating server to server communications. In most cases, server identities are automatically generated and are not stored in a repository.
However,
if you are adding a Version 5.0.x or 6.0.x node to a Version
6.1 cell, you must ensure that the Version 5.x or Version 6.0.x server
identity and password are defined in the repository for this cell. Enter the
server user identity and password on this panel.
Specifies the name of the realm. You can change the realm name.
Specifies the name of the user with administrative privileges that is defined in the repository, for example, adminUser.
Enables the application server to generate the server identity, which is recommended for environments that contain only Version 6.1 or later nodes. Automatically generated server identities are not stored in a user repository.
You can change this server identity on the Authentication mechanisms and expiration panel. To access the Authentication mechanisms and expiration panel, click Security > Secure administration, applications, and infrastructure > Authentication mechanisms and expiration. Change the value of the Internal server ID field.
Default: | Enabled |
Specifies a user identity in the repository that is used for internal process communication. Cells that contain Version 5.x or 6.0.x nodes require a server user identity that is defined in the active user repository.
Default: | Enabled |
Specifies the user ID that is used to run the application server for security purposes.
Specifies the password that corresponds to the server ID.
Specifies that a case-insensitive authorization check is performed.
If case sensitivity is not a consideration for authorization, enable the Ignore case for authorization option.
Specifies the base entry within the realm. This entry and its descendents are part of the realm.
Specifies a unique identifier for the repository. This identifier uniquely identifies the repository within the cell.
Specifies the repository type, such as File or LDAP.
