Test the configuration

When the configuration for the distributed session cache environment is complete, we can test the configuration.

Check Whether any problems occur during the following steps. Examine any errors that are displayed in the browser or in the WebSEAL server log file to help correct the issue.

Steps

1. Test that logging in works properly:
   • Access the following URL:

     https://webseal

     You must be prompted to log in.

   • Log in as a test user.

     We must be allowed access to the website.

2. Verify the maximum concurrent session policy is enforced:

   • From another server, access the following URL:

     https://webseal

     You must be prompted to login.

   • Log in as your test user with the correct password.

     We must be prompted to displace your old session.

   • Click the Terminate existing login link.

     We must be allowed access to the Web site.

   • Return to your old browser and access the following URL again:

     https://webseal

     If your browser cached the front page of the Web site, you may need to reload (refresh) the page with the Shift key held down.

     You must be prompted to login, because your original session was displaced.
