Enable and configure single sign-on for HTTP requests using SPNEGO

You can create single sign-on requests for HTTP server using the Simple and Protected GSS-API Negotiation Mechanism (SPNEGO) available in IBM WebSphere Application Server. Creating single sign-on requests using SPNEGO allows HTTP users to log in and authenticate only once and receive automatic authentication from WAS.

You should plan for SPNEGO Web authentication because SPNEGO trust association interceptor (TAI) is deprecated for WAS 7.0. To enable SPNEGO Web authentication, complete the steps in the following topic, available in the WAS Information Center, Enable and configure SPNEGO Web authentication using the administrative console.

If you plan to use SPNEGO TAI, re-enable the SPNEGO TAI after installation.

For more information about SPNEGO Web authentication and SPNEGO TAI, see the related topics in the WAS Information Center.
