Trust association settings

Trust association enables the integration of IBM WebSphere Application Server security and third-party security servers. More specifically, a reverse proxy server can act as a front-end authentication server while the product applies its own authorization policy onto the resulting credentials passed by the proxy server. Use this page to configure trust association settings.

To view this administrative console page, complete the following steps:

  1. Click Security > Global security.

  2. Under Authentication, click Authentication mechanisms > LTPA.

  3. Under Additional properties, click Trust association.

When security is enabled and any of these properties change, go to the Global security panel and click Apply to validate the changes.
