Compatibility security refers to the capability to run security configurations from WebLogic Server 6.x in this version of WebLogic Server. In Compatibility security, you configure 6.x security realms, define users, groups, and ACLs, manage the protection of user accounts, and install custom auditing providers. The only security realm available in Compatibility security is the CompatibilityRealm. This page allows you to define the general configuration of the CompatibilityRealm for this WebLogic Server domain.
The Auditing provider installed from this page must be an
implementation of the weblogic.security.audit
interface. This
interface is deprecated in this release of WebLogic Server. The
guest
user is automatically provided in Compatibility
security. When authorization is not required, WebLogic Server assigns the
guest
identity to an client, thus giving the client access to
any resources that are available to the guest
user. A client
can log in as the guest
user by entering guest
as the username and password when prompted by a Web browser or in a Java
client. By default, the guest
account is disabled. For a more
secure deployment, BEA recommends running WebLogic Server with the
guest
account disabled.
