Manage security for EJBs and Web applications

The Advanced security model is one of the security models that you can choose when you deploy EJB or Web application resources. (See Choose a Security model). This model is compatible with the realm-level configuration used in WebLogic Server release 8.1. It allows you to load security data from deployment descriptors on an initial deployment and use the Administration Console to secure resources on subsequent deployments. For more information, see Using the Advanced Model

The tasks described below apply only if you are using the Advanced security model, and only if you are using the combined technique to secure Web applications and EJBs. See Using the Combined Technique
