Distributed Authentication UI Server Deployment Scenario

You install the Distributed Authentication UI server subcomponent on one or more servers within the DMZ layer of an OpenSSO Enterprise deployment. This subcomponent acts as an authentication interface between end users and the OpenSSO Enterprise instances behind the second firewall, thus eliminating the exposure of the OpenSSO Enterprise service URLs to the end users.

The following figure shows a Distributed Authentication UI server deployment scenario.
