Use this tab to configure an Adjudication provider for a security realm. When multiple Authorization providers are configured in a security realm, each may return a different answer to the "is access allowed" question for a given resource. This answer may be PERMIT, DENY, or ABSTAIN. Determining what to do if mulitple Authorization providers do not agree on the answer is the primary function of the Adjudication provider. Adjudication providers resolve authorization conflicts by weighting each Authorization provider's answer and returning a final decision.

You can use a Custom Adjudication provider instead of the WebLogic Adjudication provider. For a Custom Adjudication provider to be available in the WebLogic Server Administration Console, the MBean JAR file for the provider must be in the WL_HOME\lib\mbeantypes directory.
