Realm Server Connect Call

Every application program must connect as a client to a realm server. The realm connect call identifies the client to the realm server, and receives the realm definition in return.

Developers must coordinate with administrators regarding the information that programs supply in the realm connect call:

  • Realm Server URL (required)
  • Application Name (required)
  • Application Instance Identifier (optional)
  • Client Label (optional)
  • Security Credentials (optional)
  • Secondary URL (optional, for fault tolerance)
  • Trust Properties (required to connect to a secure realm server)
