You can configure an existing bus to use a cell-level or
custom security domain. Using non-global security domains provides
the scope to use multiple security domains. The bus can inherit security
settings from the cell, or have a unique security configuration.
About this task
This task uses the administrative console
Bus Security
Configuration wizard to secure an existing bus. If the
wizard detects that administrative security for the cell is disabled,
it prompts you to enable it. You must specify the type of user repository,
the administrative security username and password. By default, connecting
clients are required to use SSL protected transports to ensure data
confidentiality and integrity. You can choose not to use this option.
You can specify that the bus uses the cell-level or a custom security
domain. If you choose a custom security domain, you must also specify
a user realm.
Results
You have specified that the selected bus uses a cell-level
or custom security domain. The security settings configured for the
bus are displayed in the updated
Bus Security Settings panel.
The bus is secured after you restart all the servers that are members
of the bus, or (for a bus that has bootstrap members) servers for
which the SIB service is enabled.
