Prerequisites
The round trip authentication consists of three components mainly:
- the
simple-auth-plugin
jar, - the
validator instantiation
in the webapp’sred5-web.xml
file, and - the
remote authentication
service.
You need to have the authentication service running for the system to work. A sample of the authentication server implementation, mock Node.js service, can be downloaded here. Once the server is available you can configure necessary endpoint parameters as explained in the next section.
Make sure to double-check your server endpoints for errors and expected responses before you configure it on your instance.
