Request Handler List

The RequestHandlerList is a list of key/value pair entries containing the mapping of the meta alias to the RequestHandler implementation. This attribute must be set if a OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0 server is being configured to act as Policy Decision Point (PDP).

The Key is the Policy Decision Point meta alias and the Class is the Java class name, which is the implementation of RequestHandler Interface which can process XACML Requests.

For example, If the meta Alias of the XACML Policy Decision Point is /pdp and the implementation of the interface is com.sun.identity.xacml.plugins.XACMLAuthzDecisionQueryHandler, then the key should be set to /pdp and the class should be set to com.sun.identity.xacml.plugins.XACMLAuthzDecisionQueryHandler.
