Creating a custom authentication scheme for OAM

About this task

The Token Generator uses a custom authentication scheme when creating a WAM session and validates authentication requests coming from PingFederate. This section describes how to deploy the OAM-compatible Java-based PingFederate Custom Authentication Scheme.

Steps

  1. From the <token_translator_install_dir>/dist directory, import the following file into the OAM:

    [.codeph]``PingCustomAuthPlugin.jar``

    The PingCustomAuthPlugin.jar file is a custom authentication scheme that supports OAM.

  2. Configure your Access Server to use the custom authentication plug-in by creating or modifying a custom authentication scheme.

    Refer to Oracle Support documentation for additional information.

    The secret you specify when creating the custom authentication scheme must match the secret stored in the PingFederate Token Generator.
