User Authentication

User authentication can be set using a file-based system and integration with an LDAP system.

To set up authentication, add and configure the appropriate properties in the project CDD.

Pluggable JAAS Login Module

User authentication is performed using a JAAS login module. Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) is a pluggable part of the Java security framework.

With advanced configuration, you can substitute a different implementation of the JAAS login module than the one provided, or you can add the provided login module to your existing JAAS login configuration file (thus providing multi-stage authentication).
