Uniform distributed topics - configure security policies

Before you begin

Uniform distributed topics - create security roles


Now that you have created a uniform distributed topic security policy, you need to define the conditions under which it applies.

To define a uniform distributed topic security policy:

  1. In the Administration Console, navigate to the uniform distributed topic resource that you want to configure:
  2. Click Security: Roles to open the JMS Topic Roles page.
  3. Select the role that you want to configure.
  4. Under JMS Topic Role Conditions, click Add Condition.

    The following prompt appears:

    Choose the predicate you wish to use as your new condition

  5. Choose a predicate from the list box. Typically, you will choose Group. When a group is used to create a security role, the security role can be granted to all members of the group (that is, multiple users). Click Next.
  6. The next steps depend on what you chose for your condition predicate.
    1. If you selected Group or User, enter one or more arguments that define the group or groups that should hold this role and click Finish.
    2. If you selected a time-constrained predicate, such as Access occurs between specified hours, select start and end times and a GMT offset and click Finish.
  7. If necessary, use the buttons in the Role Conditions section to modify the expressions:
    1. The Move Up and Move Down buttons change the ordering of the selected expression.
    2. The Combine and Uncombine buttons let you merge or unmerge role conditions and switches the highlighted and and or statements between expressions.
    3. The Negate button allows you to make a condition negative; for example, NOT Group Operators excludes the Operators group from the role.
    4. The Remove button deletes the selected expression.
  8. When all the expressions in the Role Conditions section are correct, save your changes:
  9. To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes.
    Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart (see Use the Change Center).
