Use this page to define the provider specific configuration of this LDAP X509 Identity Assertion provider.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Supported Types |
The token types supported by this LDAP X509 Identity Assertion provider. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Active Types |
The token type this LDAP X509 Identity Assertion provider uses for authentication. Ensure no other identity assertion provider configured in the same security realm has this attribute set to X509. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| User Filter Attributes |
Specifies how to select the LDAP object for the user from the LDAP objects beneath the base LDAP DN defined in the Certificate Mapping attribute. This setting defines how to find the LDAP object from the certificate's Subject DN. The LDAP object's class must be person. This attribute contains an array of strings, each of which is an attribute that the LDAP object must match. Typically, the value of this attribute is the LDAP object that matches the value of an attribute in the certificate's Subject DN. For example: The uid attribute of the LDAP user object matches the Subject DN attribute, if the syntax is: LDAPATTRNAME=$subj.SUBJECDNATTRNAME For example: uid=$subj.DN This option is very similar to the User Name Filter option on LDAP Authentication providers which maps a username to a search filter. The differences are:
MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| User Name Attribute |
Specifies the attribute on the LDAP object for the user that contains the user's name. The user's name should appear in the Subject. This setting defines how to find the user's name. Typically, the setting matches the User Name setting of the LDAP Authentication provider configured for use with this LDAP X509 Identity Assertion provider. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Certificate Attribute |
Specifies the attribute on the LDAP object for the user that contains the user's certificate. This option defines how to find the certificate. Valid values are userCertificate and userCertificate;binary.
MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Certificate Mapping |
Specifies how to construct the base LDAP DN used to locate the LDAP object for the user. This attribute defines how to find the object from the certificate's Subject DN. Typically, this value is the same as the User Base DN attribute in the LDAP Authentication providers. You may include the fields from the Subject DN in this base DN. For example: if the Certificate subject is CN=meyer.beasys.com, ou=fred, o=BEASYS, L=SFO, C=US and the mapping is ou=people, ou=$subj.ou, WebLogic Server uses ou=people, ou=fred, o=BEASYS, c=US as the DN when locating the user. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Base64 Decoding Required |
Determines whether the request header value or cookie value must be Base64 Decoded before sending it to the Identity Assertion provider. The setting is enabled by default for purposes of backward compatibility, however, most Identity Assertion providers will disable this attribute. |
| Host |
The host name of the computer on which the LDAP server is running. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Port |
The port number on which the LDAP server is listening. MBean Attribute: Minimum value: Maximum value: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| SSLEnabled |
Specifies whether the SSL protocol should be used when connecting to the LDAP server. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Principal |
The Distinguished Name (DN) of the LDAP user that WebLogic Server should use to connect to the LDAP server. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Credential |
The credential (usually a password) used to connect to the LDAP server. If this password has not been set, WebLogic Server generates a password at startup, initializes the attribute, and saves the configuration to the config.xml file. If you want to connect to the embedded LDAP server using an external LDAP browser and the embedded LDAP administrator account (cn=Admin), change this attribute from the generated value. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Cache Enabled |
Specifies whether a cache is used with the LDAP server This is a cache of the LDAP requests. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Cache Size |
The size of the cache (in kilobytes) that is used with the LDAP server MBean Attribute: Minimum value: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Cache TTL |
The time-to-live of the cache (in seconds) that is used with the LDAP server MBean Attribute: Minimum value: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Follow Referrals |
Specifes that a search for a user or group within the associated LDAP Authentication provider will follow referrals to other LDAP servers or branches within the LDAP directory. By default, this attribute is enabled. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Bind Anonymously On Referrals |
By default, the associated LDAP Authentication provider uses the same DN and password used to connect to the LDAP server when following referrals during a search. If you want to connect as an anonymous user, enable this attribute. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Results Time Limit |
The maximum number of milliseconds for the LDAP server to wait for results before timing out. If this attribute is set to 0, there is not a maximum time limit.. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Connect Timeout |
The maximum time in seconds to wait for the connection to the LDAP server to be established. If this attribute is set to 0, there is not a maximum time limit. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Parallel Connect Delay |
The delay in seconds when making concurrent attempts to attempt to multiple LDAP servers. If this attribute is set to 0, connection attempts are serialized. An attempt is made to connect to the first server in the list. The next entry in the list is tried only if the attempt to connect to the current host fails. If this attribute is not set and an LDAP server is unavailable, an application may be blocked for a long time. If this attribute is greater than 0, another connection is started after the specified time. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
| Connection Retry Limit |
Specifies the number of times to attempt to connect to the LDAP server if the initial connection failed. MBean Attribute: Changes take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server. |
