Create a Remote Resource for a Global Credential Map Entry
This page creates a Remote Resource for a global Credential Map entry.
Remote resources with which you communicate via the cross-domain protocol are identified by the remote domain name. If you plan to use the cross-domain protocol, click Use cross-domain protocol, and specify the remote domain name.
Remote resources with which you communicate via a means other than the cross-domain protocol are identified by one or more of the following:
- Protocol: The protocol to use to reach the remote resource
- Remote host name: The host name of the remote resource
- Remote port: The port number of the remote resource
- Path: If the remote resource is identified by a path, rather than a hostname and port
- Method: The method on the remote resource this credential is used with
If you do not plan to use the cross-domain protocol for communicating with the remote resource, leave the Use cross-domain protocol disabled, and specify the attributes by which the resource is to be identified.
