Creating a Security Token
A token is an optional configuration file that can be deployed on nodes that have access to or create secured ActiveSpaces resources. The token is created from the security parameter values set in a specified policy file.
If not used, the keyword “none” is provided for the token file location. In such a case, requestors will trust any controller and these requestors cannot connect to a secured metaspace where transport level authentication is required.
When you create a token, you can specify that it is encrypted: in this case, a requestor can only be started if the password is typed when the node starts.
Procedure
- Perform Additional Programming Tasks to Process Authentication Requests
To process authentication requests, once you have set up authentication using the ActiveSpaces CLI, you can code a callback routine for client authentication on requestors and develop code to process authentication requests.
