Oracle Access Manager (OAM) provides authentication and authorization for the Data Relationship Management Web application. In this documentation, it is assumed that OAM has been installed, configured with access policies for the Data Relationship Management Web application. For more information, see “Configuring the Access System and Protecting Resources” in the OAM Access Administration Guide.
After OAM is configured, an ISAPI filter for IIS must be installed on the server in which your Data Relationship Management Web application is running. The WebGate module intercepts HTTP requests for Web content on the server and forwards the requests to Oracle Access Server. This is the only extension that needs to be installed on the Data Relationship Management Web tier.
The component that installs that filter is the Oracle Access Manager ISAPI Webgate module. For the ISAPI Webgate module download, see the Readme file for “Oracle Access Manager 10g – non OHS 11g Webgates and 3rd Party Integrations” at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/ias/downloads/101401-099957.html.
