Overview

This MBean contains attributes for DBMS Authentication providers.Deprecation of MBeanHome and Type-Safe InterfacesThis is a type-safe interface for a WebLogic Server MBean, which you can import into your client classes and access through weblogic.management.MBeanHome. As of 9.0, the MBeanHome interface and all type-safe interfaces for WebLogic Server MBeans are deprecated. Instead, client classes that interact with WebLogic Server MBeans should use standard JMX design patterns in which clients use the javax.management.MBeanServerConnection interface to discover MBeans, attributes, and attribute types at runtime. For more information, see "Developing Manageable Applications with JMX" on http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/index.html.

Fully Qualified Interface Name

If you use the getMBeanInfo operation in MBeanTypeServiceMBean, supply the following value as this MBean's fully qualified interface name:
weblogic.security.providers.authentication.DBMSAuthenticatorMBean

Factory Methods

No factory methods. Instances of this MBean are created automatically.

Access Points Inherited from AuthenticationProviderMBean

Because this MBean extends or implements AuthenticationProviderMBean, you can also access this MBean by retrieving AuthenticationProviderMBeans. The following attributes contain AuthenticationProviderMBeans and its subtypes:

    Subtypes

    The following MBeans extend or implement this MBean type:


    Child MBeans

    This section describes attributes that contain child MBeans. For more information about the MBean hierarchy, refer to WebLogic Server MBean Data Model.


      Realm

      Returns the realm that contains this security provider. Returns null if this security provider is not contained by a realm.

             
      Factory Methods No explicit creator method. The child shares the lifecycle of its parent.

      Attributes

      This section describes the following attributes:


      ControlFlag

      Returns how the login sequence uses the Authentication provider.

      A REQUIRED value specifies this LoginModule must succeed. Even if it fails, authentication proceeds down the list of LoginModules for the configured Authentication providers. This setting is the default.

      A REQUISITE value specifies this LoginModule must succeed. If other Authentication providers are configured and this LoginModule succeeds, authentication proceeds down the list of LoginModules. Otherwise, control is return to the application.

      A SUFFICIENT value specifies this LoginModule need not succeed. If it does succeed, return control to the application. If it fails and other Authentication providers are configured, authentication proceeds down the LoginModule list.

      An OPTIONAL value specifies this LoginModule need not succeed. Whether it succeeds or fails, authentication proceeds down the LoginModule list.
