Role-based Authentication Login URLs

Role-based authentication can be specified in The User Interface Login URL by defining a role Parameter. After calling the correct role, the authentication module(s) to which the user will authenticate are retrieved from the Authentication Configuration Service instance defined for the role.

The login URLs used to specify and initiate this role-based authentication are:

http://server_name.domain_name:port/amserver/UI/Login?role=role_name
http://server_name.domain_name:port/amserver/UI/Login?realm=realm_name&role=role_name

If the realm Parameter is not configured, the realm to which the role belongs is determined from the server host and domain specified in the login URL itself.
