Create New Security Realms
Use this page to configure a new security realm.
A security realm provides all the auditing, authentication, authorization, credential mapping, and role mapping services to a WebLogic Server deployment. You can configure multiple security realms within a single WebLogic Server deployment. However, only one security realm is designated as the default security realm. To designate your newly configured security realm as the default security realm, see the "Change the default security realm" task.
For any security realm to be valid, configure each of the following types of security providers (in any order):
- Authentication
- Authorization
- Adjudication
- Credential Mapping
- Role Mapping
At least one Authorization, Credential Mapping, and Role Mapping provider in the security realm must implement the
DeployableAuthorizationProvider
,DeployableCredentialProvider
, andDeployableRoleProvider
Security Service Provider Interface (SSPI), respectively. These SSPIs allow the providers to store (rather than retrieve) information from deployment descriptors.
