Configuring WebLogic For Multiple LDAP Servers

To utilize LDAP, you should configure Oracle Analytics Publisher to use the "Oracle Fusion Middleware" security model and configure WebLogic to use LDAP.

To configure WebLogic to use LDAP:

Log in to WebLogic.
Under Domain Structure, select Security Realms.
Select the myrealm link.
In the settings for myrealm page, select the Providers tab.
Select the DefaultAuthenticator link.
Select Lock and Edit in the Change Center.
Set the Control Flag dropdown to Sufficient.
Save your changes.
Return to the Providers page.
Select the new button to create a new provider (this will allow you to connect to an LDAP server).
In the Name field, call the provider anything you want.
In the Type dropdown, select the provider that makes sense for your environment (if active directory, select 'ActiveDirectoryProvider').
Select OK.
Select the link for the provider you created.
On the Common tab, set the Control Flag to Sufficient.
Select the Provider Specific tab.
Configure the fields to connect to one of your LDAP servers.
Save the changes.
Return to the Providers page.
Select the Reorder button and move the LDAP provider to the top of your list.
If needed, repeat these steps to create additional LDAP Server connections.
In the Change Center section, select Active Changes.
Note: Do not restart Oracle Analytics Publisher until you complete the steps in the following sections.
