This page allows you to define the general configuration of this WebLogic Authentication provider.
Authentication is the process whereby the identity of users or system processes are proved or verified. Authentication also involves remembering, transporting, and making identity information available to various components of a system when that information is needed.
By default, the WebLogic Authentication provider is configured in the default security realm (myrealm). The WebLogic Authentication provider allows you to edit, list, and manage users, groups, and group membership. User and group information is stored in the embedded LDAP server.
The Control Flag attribute is the Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) control flag that determines how the LoginModule for the WebLogic Authentication provider is used in the login sequence.
You can use a
custom Authentication provider instead of the WebLogic Authentication
provider. For a custom Authentication 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.
