Extensions

Use extensions to implement our own obligation handler and authentication mechanism.

Obligation handler

The obligation handler extension point allows an application developer to handle obligations at the policy decision point before it returns the result to the policy enforcement point application.

For information about managing obligations in the local management interface, see Manage obligations.

Authentication mechanism

The authentication mechanism determines the conditions that successfully authenticate a user.

For information about managing authentication mechanisms in the local management interface, see Manage authentication mechanisms.

For information about the Software Development Kit, see Software Development Kit.

• Manage extensions
  Deploy your extensions to the appliance to create an instance of it and use the instance in the policies. Extensions are contained in bundles. We can import, replace, export, and delete bundles that contain extensions.
