Oracle BI Publisher Server Security

The Oracle BI Publisher Server and the EnterpriseOne HTML Server must be within the same firewall to have two-way web service and HTTP communication.

To create an interactive BI Publisher report, a user must be able to sign on to both BI Publisher and to the EnterpriseOne database. The connection string for the data source, along with the EnterpriseOne JDBC Driver configuration, specifies the database that BI Publisher will access when creating and running interactive reports. At the time that the JDBC driver is configured, it is highly recommended that you select the Use Proxy Authentication option for the data source. Using proxy authentication assumes that the user IDs in BI Publisher and EnterpriseOne are the same, either by duplication or by using Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP).

Refer to "Oracle BI Publisher and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Security" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools BI Publisher for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Guide for instructions on how to configure Oracle BI Publisher with EnterpriseOne.

You can configure the BI Publisher Server with the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol so that all communication is over HTTPS. See Configuring SSL for EnterpriseOne Servers.
