Use the wsadmin tool, which supports the Jython and Jacl scripting
language, to edit trust service configurations. Use the STSManagement command
group for the AdminTask object to specify details related to secure sessions
between clients and target services.
About this task
The trust service uses the secure messaging mechanisms of the Web
Services Trust (WS-Trust) specification to define additional extensions for
issuing, exchanging, and validating security tokens. Use the STSManagement
command group for the AdminTask object to configure the trust service using
the wsadmin tool. Complete any of the following tasks using the STSManagement
commands:
Procedure
- Manage token provider configurations.
Use the wsadmin tool to manage token providers. Customize token providers
by defining properties such as token type schema URI, handler factory, cache
cushion time, class name, and token timeout. You can also allow or restrict
the use of post-dated tokens, distributed cache, and renewable tokens after
timeout.
- Query existing token provider
configurations.
Use the wsadmin tool to query the existing
trust service token provider configuration.
- Manage endpoint token assignments.
Use the wsadmin tool to assign, unassign, and modify endpoint token
assignments.
- Refresh your configuration
changes.
Use the wsadmin tool to force the trust service
to reload the token provider configuration during run time. Complete this
action to use new configuration changes before you restart the application
server.
What to do next
Use the information center topics for managing token providers using
the STSManagement group of commands and the AdminTask object.
