Security Realms (FileNet Content Engine)

Realm

• A collection of all user accounts and group memberships available to the FileNet P8 domain
• Created, maintained, and authenticated by the authentication provider
• Read and used by the FileNet P8 domain

Multiple realms

• The IBM FileNet P8 platform supports multiple realms.
• Security principals can be mapped between realms using the Security Map Wizard.
• Realms must use the same security server type.

Logons from unconfigured LDAP realms

           IBM FileNet Content Manager can be configured to allow or disallow logon by users who belong to groups that exist in unconfigured LDAP realms. However, the user must belong to a configured realm.

Hidden group logons
FileNet Content Manager can authenticate users who are members of hidden security groups in the LDAP directory.
