Using SiteMinder Authentication for Logging In

The TIBCO MDM Authentication Module is specified using the Configurator as 'sm'.

Procedure

Create the required enterprise in TIBCO MDM without configuring SiteMinder related properties.
Set up single sign-on by configuring the SiteMinder Pluggable Login Module and SiteMinder headers using the Configurator (Authentication > Site Minder).
Note:
- In case of single sign-on, TIBCO MDM is bypassed in the authentication procedure and gets the user details forwarded as HTTP headers per the single sign-on policy setup.
- The following properties support multiple values for SiteMinder. For example, you can take the values from a comma separated list, and verify each header in the order: userName=alt-user,alt-second-user. This checks for alt-user, if null, checks for alt-second-user, and so on:
```
authentication.sm.user=alt-user, alt-user1
authentication.sm.credential=iv-creds,iv-creds2
```
