View Details About Delegated Authentication

By default, in the Delegated Authentication page, you can see the name and status of each Microsoft Active Directory (AD) Bridge that Oracle Identity Cloud Service uses to communicate with an AD domain. You can also see other information about the bridge, such as whether it's activated or deactivated for delegated authentication.

  1. In the Identity Cloud Service console, expand the Navigation Drawer, click Security, and then click Delegated Authentication.

  2. Expand the node to the left of the AD Bridge about which you want to view additional information. You'll see an Activate Delegated Authentication switch, which indicates whether the bridge is activated or deactivated for delegated authentication.

    Tip:

    Click the AD Bridge to see detailed configuration information about it, as well as how many users and groups were transferred by the bridge from AD into Oracle Identity Cloud Service.

Note:

The Activate Delegated Authentication switch may be "greyed out" (that is, you can't turn the switch on or off) for one of the following reasons:

  1. The status of the AD Bridge is No Clients Found. You can't activate delegated authentication for the bridge because the bridge won't work until you install a client for the bridge. Click the Click here to download the client. link to download the client for the bridge.

  2. The status of the AD Bridge is Incompatible Client Found. You can't activate delegated authentication for the bridge because the bridge won't work until you install the correct version of the client for the bridge. Click the Click here to download the client. link to download the updated client for the bridge.

  3. The AD Bridge isn't configured for delegated authentication. To configure it:

    1. Click the bridge.

    2. Click Configuration.

    3. In the Configure the Microsoft Active Directory Domain page, scroll down until you see the Authentication Settings area.

    4. Select Enable local authentication.

    5. Click Save.

    6. In the Save Configuration Changes? dialog box, click OK.
