Tivoli Access Manager: WebSphere Application Server WebSEAL TAI parameters

HCL Portal uses the following information for WebSEAL.

wp.ac.impl.hostnames
Description
(Optional) This value sets the WebSEAL TAI's hostnames parameter. You should include the host name you provided when configuring the WebSEAL instance. The default behavior when configuring a WebSEAL instance is to use the network short name. For example, hosta.yourcompany.com may be represented as hosta. When the WebSEAL instance is configured and if any additional proxies are included, their host names must be added as well. Presence of this parameter will cause the TAI to evaluate the VIA header and only handle those requests that contain one of the provided host name, and port combinations. This value is case-sensitive and may be a comma-delimited list if more than one host name is provided
Default value
No default value
Examples
:
wp.ac.impl.ports
Description
(Optional) This value sets the WebSEAL TAI's ports parameter. You should include the WebSEAL ports in this comma-delimited list. The default WebSEAL port is 443. Presence of this parameter will cause the TAI to evaluate the VIA header and only handle those requests that contain one of the provided host name and port combinations.
Default value
No default value
Examples
:
wp.ac.impl.loginId
Description
When you create a TCP junction, this value is WebSEAL identity representing the reverse proxy on every request. WebSphere Application Server will use this identity to establish the "trust" that is required to validate the WebSEAL iv-* headers. The password for this user should be set in the WebSEAL instance's webseald.conf on the basicauth-dummy-passwd property.
Default value
wpsadmin
Examples
:
wp.ac.impl.TAICreds
Description
This value is the headers inserted by WebSEAL that the TAI uses to identify the request as originating from WebSEAL. Inclusion of these headers is associated with the headers used by the WebSphere Application Server TAI to identify the request as one from WebSEAL. If you are configuring Portal to use TAM as an external authorization engine, you must include at least the iv-user and iv-creds headers.
Default value
iv-user,iv-creds
Examples
:
wp.ac.impl.checkViaHeader
Description
You can configure TAI so that the VIA header can be ignored when validating trust for a request. Set this property to false if none of the hosts in the VIA header need to be evaluated. When this value is false, you do not need to set the wp.ac.impl.hostnames and wp.ac.impl.ports properties. The only mandatory property to set when this value is false is wp.ac.impl.loginId.
Valid values
true
false
Default value
false
Examples
None available
wp.ac.impl.viaDepth
Description
This value is a positive integer that specifies the number of source hosts in the VIA header to check for trust. By default, every host in the VIA header is checked, and if any host is not trusted, trust cannot be established. The VIA depth property is used when only some of the hosts in the VIA header have to be trusted. The setting indicates the number of hosts that are required to be trusted.
Default value
0
Examples
:
wp.ac.impl.ssoPwdExpiry
Description
After trust is established for a request, the single sign-on user password is cached, eliminating the need to have the TAI re-authenticate the single sign-on user with Tivoli Access Manager for every request. You can modify the cache timeout period by setting the single sign-on password expiry property to the required time in seconds. If the password expiry property is set to 0, the cached password never expires.
Default value
600
Examples
None available
wp.ac.impl.ignoreProxy
Description
This property can be used to tell the TAI to ignore proxies as trusted hosts. If set to true the comments field of the hosts entry in the VIA header is checked to determine if a host is a proxy. Remember that not all proxies insert comments in the via header indicating that they are proxies. If the checkViaHeader property is set to false, then the ignoreProxy property has no influence in establishing trust.
Valid values
true
false
Default value
false
Examples
