This executable .jar file, openam-configurator-tool-14.1.3.27.jar, lets you perform silent installation, configuring a deployed AM server by applying settings from a configuration file.

Options

The following options are supported.

-f | --file configuration-file: Configure a deployed AM web application archive using the specified configuration file. Installation and upgrade configuration files are described in the sections below.
--acceptLicense: Auto-accept the software license agreement and suppress the display of the licence acceptance screen to the user. If the configuration file contains the ACCEPT_LICENSES property, it will have precedence over the command-line option.
-? | --help: Display the usage message.

Installation configuration file

Base your configuration on the sampleconfiguration file delivered with AM, and using the hints in this section, or the comments included in the file.

Server Properties

These properties pertain to the AM server instance.

SERVER_URL: URL to the web container where you want AM to run, such as http://openam.example.com:8080.
DEPLOYMENT_URI: URI where you want to deploy AM on the web container, such as /openam.
BASE_DIR: Configuration directory where AM stores files and embedded configuration directory server, such as $HOME/openam.
locale: The user locale, such as en_GB
PLATFORM_LOCALE: The locale of the AM server, such as en_US
AM_ENC_KEY: The password encryption key, which must be the same on all servers in a multi-server installation, such as O6QWwHPO4os+zEz3Nqn/2daAYWyiFE32. If left blank, installing AM generates a random password encryption key that you can view in the AM admin UI, under Deployment > Servers > Server Name > Security.
ADMIN_PWD: Password of the AM administrator user amAdmin, which must be at least 8 characters in length and must match that of other servers in a multiserver deployment.
COOKIE_DOMAIN: Name of the trusted DNS domain AM returns to a browser when it grants a session ID to a user. By default, it is set to the full URL that was used to access the configurator, such as example.com.
ACCEPT_LICENSES: Optional boolean property that can be set to always auto-accept the software license agreement and suppress the display of the license acceptance screen to the user. A value of true auto-accepts the license; any other value will be assumed to equal false, resulting in the presentation of the license. Default value is false. This property takes precedence over the --acceptLicense option, which can also be passed in to the application with the openam-configurator-tool-14.1.3.27.jar file.

Configuration Store Properties

These properties pertain to the directory server where AM stores its configuration.

DATA_STORE: Type of the configuration data store. The value embedded means set up AM with an embedded, DS configuration store. The value dirServer means an external directory server, such as ForgeRock Directory Services, or Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition. If you set this to dirServer, and the configuration store contains the configuration of other AM servers, then the server is added to the existing multiserver installation.
DIRECTORY_SSL: To use LDAP without SSL, set this to SIMPLE. To use LDAP with SSL, set this to SSL.
DIRECTORY_SERVER: Fully qualified domain name of the configuration store directory server host, such as opendj.example.com.
DIRECTORY_PORT: LDAP or LDAPS port number for the configuration store directory server, such as 389 or 636.
DIRECTORY_ADMIN_PORT: Administration port number for the configuration store directory server, such as 4444.
DIRECTORY_JMX_PORT: Java Management eXtension port number, such as 1689, used with the DS embedded configuration store.
ROOT_SUFFIX: Root suffix distinguished name (DN) for the configuration store, such as o=openam.
DS_DIRMGRDN: Distinguished name of the directory manager of the configuration store, such as uid=admin.
DS_DIRMGRPASSWD: Password for the directory manager of the configuration store.

User Data Store Properties

These properties pertain to the directory server where AM stores user profiles. If you do not include these properties, or you leave these properties commented out, then AM uses the same directory server as it uses for the configuration store.

USERSTORE_TYPE

The type of directory server used. Valid values include the following.

LDAPv3ForOpenDS: ForgeRock 0penDJ or Sun OpenDS
LDAPv3ForAD: Active Directory with host and port settings
LDAPv3ForADDC: Active Directory with a Domain Name setting
LDAPv3ForADAM: Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (Formerly known as Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM).)
LDAPv3ForODSEE: Sun Java System Directory Server
LDAPv3ForTivoli: IBM Tivoli Directory Server

USERSTORE_SSL

To use LDAP without SSL, set this to SIMPLE. To use LDAP with SSL, set this to SSL.

USERSTORE_DOMAINNAME

If USERSTORE_TYPE is LDAPv3ForADDC, you set this to the Active Directory Domain Name, such as ad.example.com, and then set only the USERSTORE_SSL, USERSTORE_MGRDN, and USERSTORE_PASSWD additional parameters. This lets Active Directory use DNS to retrieve service locations. Otherwise, do not use.

USERSTORE_HOST

Fully qualified domain name of the user data store directory server, such as opendj.example.com.

USERSTORE_PORT

Port number of the user data store. Default for LDAP is 389, and for LDAP over SSL is 636.

USERSTORE_SUFFIX

Root suffix distinguished name for the user data in the directory, such as dc=example,dc=com.

USERSTORE_MGRDN

Distinguished name of the directory manager of the user data store, such as uid=admin.

USERSTORE_PASSWD

Password for the directory manager of the user data store.

Site Properties

These properties pertain when you configure multiple AM servers in a site deployment, where a load balancer spreads request across multiple servers.

LB_SITE_NAME: The name of the AM site
LB_PRIMARY_URL: The load balancer URL for the site, such as http://lb.example.com:80/openam.

Upgrade Configuration File

Base your configuration on the sampleconfiguration file delivered with AM, and using the hints in this section, or the comments included in the file.

Upgrade Properties

SERVER_URL: URL to the web container where AM runs, such as http://openam.example.com:8080
DEPLOYMENT_URI: URI where AM is deployed on the web container, such as /openam
ACCEPT_LICENSES: Optional boolean property that can be set to always auto-accept the software license agreement and suppress displaying the license acceptance screen to the user. A value of true auto-accepts the license; any other value will be assumed to equal false, resulting in the presentation of the license. Default value is false. This property takes precedence over the --acceptLicense option, which can also be passed in to the application with the openam-configurator-tool-14.1.3.27.jar file.

JVM Properties for ssoadm

You can specifically set the authentication module or chain for administrator logins using two JVM settings. These settings provide more control to select the exact authentication mechanisms to be used when ssoadm authenticates administrators in the top-level realm.

To set these properties, manually edit the following two JVM settings in the ssoadm or ssoadm.bat script.

org.forgerock.openam.ssoadm.auth.indexType: Specifies the module or chain-based authentication in the top level realm. If the property is set, OpenAM uses only that authentication mechanism.
org.forgerock.openam.ssoadm.auth.indexName: Specifies the actual name of the authentication module/chain as controlled by the indexType setting. For example, if the indexType is set to module_instance and indexName is set to LDAP, then ssoadm authenticates using only the LDAP authentication module.

Subcommands by category

This section lists subcommands by category. The subsequent section lists subcommands in alphabetical order with a short description.

See ssoadm subcommand --help for detailed options.

Set multiple attributes in a single ssoadm command

You can set multiple attributes in a single ssoadm command by using a text file or by specifying multiple attributes with the -a option.

Text file

Create a text file with each property on each line followed by a line feed and save the file for example, as TEXT_FILE:
```
iplanet-am-session-max-session-time=150
iplanet-am-session-max-idle-time=15
iplanet-am-session-max-caching-time=5
```

Run the ssoadm command specifying the name of the file with the --datafile (-D) option:

$ ./ssoadm set-attr-defs \
  --servicename iPlanetAMSessionService \
  --schematype dynamic \
  --adminid uid=amAdmin,ou=People,dc=openam,dc=forgerock,dc=org \
  --password-file passwordfile \
  --datafile TEXT_FILE

The `--attributevalues` option

Run ssoadm using the --attributevalues (-a) option. Separate each attribute with a space:

$ ./ssoadm set-attr-defs \
  --servicename iPlanetAMSessionService \
  --schematype dynamic \
  --adminid uid=amAdmin,ou=People,dc=openam,dc=forgerock,dc=org \
  --password-file passwordfile \
  --attributevalues \
      iplanet-am-session-max-session-time=150 \
      iplanet-am-session-max-idle-time=15 \
      iplanet-am-session-max-caching-time=5

Core authentication attributes

Every AM realm has a set of authentication properties that applies to all authentication performed to that realm. The settings are referred to as core authentication attributes.

To configure core authentication attributes for an entire AM deployment, go to Configure > Authentication in the AM admin UI, and click Core Attributes.

To override the global core authentication configuration in a realm, go to Realms > Realm Name > Authentication > Settings in the AM admin UI.

amster service name: Authentication

ssoadm service name: iPlanetAMAuthService

Global Attributes

The following properties are available under the Global Attributes tab:

Pluggable Authentication Module Classes

Lists the authentication modules classes available to AM. If you have custom authentication modules, add classes to this list that extend from the com.sun.identity.authentication.spi.AMLoginModule class.

For more information about custom authentication modules, see Creating a Custom Authentication Module.

This setting applies only to modules within authentication chains.

amster attribute: authenticators

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-authenticators

LDAP Connection Pool Size

Sets a minimum and a maximum number of LDAP connections to be used by any authentication module that connects to a specific directory server. This connection pool is different than the SDK connection pool configured in serverconfig.xml file.

Format is host:port:minimum:maximum.

This attribute is for LDAP and Membership authentication modules only.

amster attribute: ldapConnectionPoolSize

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-ldap-connection-pool-size

Default LDAP Connection Pool Size

Sets the default minimum and maximum number of LDAP connections to be used by any authentication module that connects to any directory server. This connection pool is different than the SDK connection pool configured in serverconfig.xml file.

Format is minimum:maximum.

When tuning for production, start with 10 minimum, 65 maximum. For example, 10:65.

This attribute is for LDAP and Membership authentication modules only.

amster attribute: ldapConnectionPoolDefaultSize

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-ldap-connection-pool-default-size

Remote Auth Security

When enabled, AM requires the authenticating application to send its SSO token. This allows AM to obtain the username and password associated with the application.

amster attribute: remoteAuthSecurityEnabled

ssoadm attribute: sunRemoteAuthSecurityEnabled

Keep Post Process Objects for Logout Processing

When enabled, AM stores instances of post-processing classes into the user session. When the user logs out, the original post-processing classes are called instead of new instances. This may be required for special logout processing.

Enabling this setting increases the memory usage of AM.

amster attribute: keepPostProcessInstances

ssoadm attribute: sunAMAuthKeepPostProcessInstances

Core

The following properties are available under the Core tab:

Administrator Authentication Configuration: Specifies the default authentication chain or tree used when an administrative user, such as amAdmin, logs in to the AM admin UI.

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-admin-auth-module
Organization Authentication Configuration: Specifies the default authentication chain or tree used when a non-administrative user logs in to AM.

amster attribute: orgConfig

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-org-config

User Profile

The following properties are available under the User Profile tab:

User Profile

Specifies whether a user profile needs to exist in the user data store, or should be created on successful authentication. The possible values are:

true. Dynamic.

After successful authentication, AM creates a user profile if one does not already exist. AM then issues the SSO token. AM creates the user profile in the user data store configured for the realm.

createAlias. Dynamic with User Alias.

After successful authentication, AM creates a user profile that contains the User Alias List attribute, which defines one or more aliases for mapping a user’s multiple profiles.

ignore. Ignored.

After successful authentication, AM issues an SSO token regardless of whether a user profile exists in the data store. The presence of a user profile is not checked.

Any functionality which needs to map values to profile attributes, such as SAML or OAuth 2.0, will not operate correctly if the User Profile property is set to ignore.

false. Required.

After successful authentication, the user must have a user profile in the user data store configured for the realm in order for AM to issue an SSO token.

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-dynamic-profile-creation. Set this attribute’s value to one of the following: true, createAlias, ignore, or false.

User Profile Dynamic Creation Default Roles

Specifies the distinguished name (DN) of a role to be assigned to a new user whose profile is created when either the true or createAlias options are selected under the User Profile property. There are no default values. The role specified must be within the realm for which the authentication process is configured.

This role can be either an AM or Sun DSEE role, but it cannot be a filtered role. If you wish to automatically assign specific services to the user, you have to configure the Required Services property in the user profile.

This functionality is deprecated.

amster attribute: defaultRole

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-default-role

Alias Search Attribute Name

After a user is successfully authenticated, the user’s profile is retrieved. AM first searches for the user based on the data store settings. If that fails to find the user, AM will use the attributes listed here to look up the user profile. This setting accepts any data store specific attribute name.

amster attribute: aliasAttributeName

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-alias-attr-name

If the Alias Search Attribute Name property is empty, AM uses the iplanet-am-auth-user-naming-attr property from the iPlanetAmAuthService. The iplanet-am-auth-user-naming-attr property is only configurable through the ssoadm command-line tool and not through the AM admin UI.

$ ssoadm get-realm-svc-attrs \
--adminid uid=amAdmin,ou=People,dc=openam,dc=forgerock,dc=org \
--password-file PATH_TO_PWDFILE \
--realm REALM \
--servicename iPlanetAMAuthService$ ssoadm set-realm-svc-attrs \
 --adminid uid=amAdmin,ou=People,dc=openam,dc=forgerock,dc=org \
 --password-file PATH_TO_PWDFILE \
 --realm REALM \
 --servicename iPlanetAMAuthService \
 --attributevalues iplanet-am-auth-user-naming-attr=SEARCH_ATTRIBUTE

Account Lockout

The following properties are available under the Account Lockout tab:

Login Failure Lockout Mode: When enabled, AM deactivates the LDAP attribute defined in the Lockout Attribute Name property in the user’s profile upon login failure. This attribute works in conjunction with the other account lockout and notification attributes.

amster attribute: loginFailureLockoutMode

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-login-failure-lockout-mode
Login Failure Lockout Count: Defines the number of attempts that a user has to authenticate within the time interval defined in Login Failure Lockout Interval before being locked out.

amster attribute: loginFailureCount

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-login-failure-count
Login Failure Lockout Interval: Defines the time in minutes during which failed login attempts are counted. If one failed login attempt is followed by a second failed attempt within this defined lockout interval time, the lockout count starts, and the user is locked out if the number of attempts reaches the number defined by the Login Failure Lockout Count property. If an attempt within the defined lockout interval time proves successful before the number of attempts reaches the number defined by the Login Failure Lockout Count property, the lockout count is reset.

amster attribute: loginFailureDuration

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-login-failure-duration
Email Address to Send Lockout Notification: Specifies one or more email addresses to which notification is sent if a user lockout occurs.

Separate multiple addresses with spaces, and append |locale|charset to addresses for recipients in non-English locales.

amster attribute: lockoutEmailAddress

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-lockout-email-address
Warn User After N Failures: Specifies the number of authentication failures after which AM displays a warning message that the user will be locked out.

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-lockout-warn-user
Login Failure Lockout Duration: Defines how many minutes a user must wait after a lockout before attempting to authenticate again. Entering a value greater than 0 enables duration lockout and disables persistent (physical) lockout. Duration lockout means the user’s account is locked for the number of minutes specified. The account is unlocked after the time period has passed.

amster attribute: lockoutDuration

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-lockout-duration
Lockout Duration Multiplier: For duration lockout, this attribute defines a multiplier that is applied to the value of the Login Failure Lockout Duration for each successive lockout. For example, if Login Failure Lockout Duration is set to 3 minutes, and the Lockout Duration Multiplier is set to 2, the user is locked out of the account for 6 minutes. After the 6 minutes has elapsed, if the user again provides the wrong credentials, the lockout duration is then 12 minutes. With the Lockout Duration Multiplier, the lockout duration is incrementally increased based on the number of times the user has been locked out.

amster attribute: lockoutDurationMultiplier

ssoadm attribute: sunLockoutDurationMultiplier
Lockout Attribute Name: Defines the LDAP attribute used for physical lockout. The default attribute is inetuserstatus, although the field in the AM admin UI is empty. The Lockout Attribute Value field must also contain an appropriate value.

amster attribute: lockoutAttributeName

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-lockout-attribute-name
Lockout Attribute Value: Specifies the action to take on the attribute defined in Lockout Attribute Name. The default value is inactive, although the field in the AM admin UI is empty. The Lockout Attribute Name field must also contain an appropriate value.

amster attribute: lockoutAttributeValue

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-lockout-attribute-value
Invalid Attempts Data Attribute Name: Specifies the LDAP attribute used to hold the number of failed authentication attempts towards Login Failure Lockout Count. Although the field appears empty in the AM admin UI, AM stores this data in the sunAMAuthInvalidAttemptsDataAttrName attribute defined in the sunAMAuthAccountLockout objectclass by default.

amster attribute: invalidAttemptsDataAttributeName

ssoadm attribute: sunAMAuthInvalidAttemptsDataAttrName
Store Invalid Attempts in Data Store: When enabled, AM stores the information regarding failed authentication attempts as the value of the Invalid Attempts Data Attribute Name in the user data store. Information stored includes number of invalid attempts, time of last failed attempt, lockout time and lockout duration. Storing this information in the identity repository allows it to be shared among multiple instances of AM.

Enable this property to track invalid log in attempts when using server-side or client-side authentication sessions.

amster attribute: storeInvalidAttemptsInDataStore

ssoadm attribute: sunStoreInvalidAttemptsInDS

General

The following properties are available under the General tab:

Default Authentication Locale

Specifies the default language subtype to be used by the Authentication service. The default value is en_US.

amster attribute: locale

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-locale

Identity Types

Lists the type or types of identities used during a profile lookup. You can choose more than one to search on multiple types if you would like AM to conduct a second lookup if the first lookup fails.

This setting applies only to modules within authentication chains.

amster attribute: identityType

ssoadm attribute: sunAMIdentityType

The possible values are:

Agent: Searches for identities under your agents.
agentgroup: Searches for identities according to your established agent group.
agentonly: Searches for identities only under your agents.
Group: Searches for identities according to your established groups.
User: Searches for identities according to your users.

Default: Agent and User.

Pluggable User Status Event Classes

Specifies one or more Java classes used to provide a callback mechanism for user status changes during the authentication process. The Java class must implement the com.sun.identity.authentication.spi.AMAuthCallBack interface. AM supports account lockout and password changes. AM supports password changes through the LDAP authentication module, and so the feature is only available for the LDAP module.

A .jar file containing the user status event class belongs in the WEB-INF/lib directory of the deployed AM instance. If you do not build a .jar file, add the class files under WEB-INF/classes.

amster attribute: userStatusCallbackPlugins

ssoadm attribute: sunAMUserStatusCallbackPlugins

Use Client-Side Sessions

When enabled, AM assigns client-side sessions to users authenticating to this realm. Otherwise, AM users authenticating to this realm are assigned server-side sessions.

For more information about sessions, see Introduction to sessions.

amster attribute: statelessSessionsEnabled

ssoadm attribute: openam-auth-stateless-sessions

Two Factor Authentication Mandatory

When enabled, users authenticating to a chain that includes a ForgeRock Authenticator (OATH) module are always required to perform authentication using a registered device before they can access AM. When not selected, users can opt to forego registering a device and providing a token and still successfully authenticate.

Letting users choose not to provide a verification token while authenticating carries implications beyond the required, optional, requisite, or sufficient flag settings on the ForgeRock Authenticator (OATH) module in the authentication chain.

The Two Factor Authentication Mandatory property only applies to modules within authentication chains, and does not affect nodes within authentication trees.

amster attribute: twoFactorRequired

ssoadm attribute: forgerockTwoFactorAuthMandatory

For example, suppose you configured authentication as follows:

The ForgeRock Authenticator (OATH) module is in an authentication chain.
The ForgeRock Authenticator (OATH) module has the required flag set.
Two Factor Authentication Mandatory is not selected.

Users authenticating to the chain can authenticate successfully without providing tokens from their devices. The reason for successful authentication in this case is that the required setting relates to the execution of the ForgeRock Authenticator (OATH) module itself. Internally, the ForgeRock Authenticator (OATH) module has the ability to forego processing a token while still returning a passing status to the authentication chain.

External Login Page URL

Specifies the URL of the external login user interface, if the authentication user interface is hosted separately from AM.

When set, AM will use the provided URL as the base of the resume URI, rather than using the Base URL Source Service to obtain the base URL. AM will use this URL when constructing the resume URI if authentication is suspended in an authentication tree.

For more information about the Base URL Source Service, see Configure the Base URL source service.

This setting only applies to nodes within authentication trees, and does not affect modules within authentication chains.

amster attribute: externalLoginPageUrl

ssoadm attribute: externalLoginPageUrl

Default Authentication Level

Specifies the default authentication level for authentication modules.

This setting applies only to modules within authentication chains.

amster attribute: defaultAuthLevel

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-default-auth-level

Trees

The following properties are available under the Trees tab, and apply only to authentication nodes and trees:

Authentication session state management scheme

Specifies the location where AM stores authentication sessions.

Possible values are:

CTS. AM stores authentication sessions server-side, in the CTS token store.
JWT. AM sends the authentication session to the client as a JWT.
In-Memory. AM stores authentication sessions in its memory.

For more information on authentication session storage locations, and the requirements for each, see Introduction to sessions.

Default: JWT (new installations), In-Memory (after upgrade)

amster attribute: authenticationSessionsStateManagement

ssoadm attribute: openam-auth-authentication-sessions-state-management-scheme

Max duration (minutes)

Specifies the maximum allowed duration of an authentication session, including any time spent in the suspended state, in minutes.

Values from 1 to 2147483647 are allowed.

Default: 5

amster attribute: authenticationSessionsMaxDuration

ssoadm attribute: openam-auth-authentication-sessions-max-duration

Suspended authentication duration (minutes)

Specifies the length of time an authentication session can be suspended, in minutes.

Suspending an authentication session allows time for out-of-band authentication methods, such as responding to emailed codes or performing an action on an additional device. The value must be less than or equal to the total time allowed for an authentication session, specified in the Max duration (minutes) property.

Values from 1 to 2147483647 are allowed.

Default: 5

ssoadm attribute: suspendedAuthenticationTimeout

Enable Allowlisting

When enabled, AM allowlists authentication sessions to protect them against replay attacks.

Default: Disabled

amster attribute: authenticationSessionsWhitelist

ssoadm attribute: openam-auth-authentication-sessions-whitelist

Stops sending tokenId

When HttpOnly session cookies are enabled and a client calls the /json/authenticate endpoint with a valid SSO token, AM returns an empty tokenId field.

Disable this property to have AM send a valid token ID in this scenario.

For security reasons, you should leave this property enabled. If you have migrated an existing deployment, adjust your clients to expect an empty token ID, then enable this property.

Default: Enabled

amster attribute: authenticationTreeCookieHttpOnly

ssoadm attribute: authenticationTreeCookieHttpOnly

Security

The following properties are available under the Security tab:

Module Based Authentication

When enabled, users can authenticate using module-based authentication. Otherwise, all attempts at authentication using the module=module-name login parameter result in failure.

ForgeRock recommends disabling module-based authentication in production environments.

This setting applies only to modules within authentication chains.

amster attribute: moduleBasedAuthEnabled

ssoadm attribute: sunEnableModuleBasedAuth

Persistent Cookie Encryption Certificate Alias

Specifies the key pair alias in the AM keystore to use for encrypting persistent cookies.

Default: test

This setting only applies to nodes within authentication trees, and does not affect modules within authentication chains.

amster attribute: keyAlias

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-key-alias

Zero Page Login

When enabled, AM allows users to authenticate using only GET request parameters without showing a login screen.

Enable with caution as browsers can cache credentials and servers can log credentials when they are part of the URL.

AM always allows HTTP POST requests for zero page login.

Default: false (disabled)

This setting applies only to modules within authentication chains.

amster attribute: zeroPageLoginEnabled

ssoadm attribute: openam.auth.zero.page.login.enabled

Zero Page Login Referer Allowlist

Lists the HTTP referer URLs for which AM allows zero page login. These URLs are supplied in the Referer HTTP request header, allowing clients to specify the web page that provided the link to the requested resource.

When zero page login is enabled, including the URLs for the pages from which to allow zero page login will provide some mitigation against Login Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks. Leave this list blank to allow zero page login from any Referer.

This setting applies for both HTTP GET and also HTTP POST requests for zero page login.

This setting applies only to modules within authentication chains.

amster attribute: zeroPageLoginReferrerWhiteList

ssoadm attribute: openam.auth.zero.page.login.referer.whitelist

Zero Page Login Allowed Without Referer?

When enabled, allows zero page login for requests without an HTTP Referer request header. Zero page login must also be enabled.

Enabling this setting reduces the risk of login CSRF attacks with zero page login enabled, but may potentially deny legitimate requests.

amster attribute: zeroPageLoginAllowedWithoutReferrer

ssoadm attribute: openam.auth.zero.page.login.allow.null.referer

Add clear-site-data Header on Logout

When enabled, AM adds the Clear-Site-Data header to successful logout responses. The Clear-Site-Data directive instructs the browser to delete relevant site data on logout. This directive includes cache, cookies, storage, and executionContexts.

Default: true (enabled)

amster attribute: addClearSiteDataHeader

Organization Authentication Signing Secret

Specifies a cryptographically-secure random-generated HMAC shared secret for signing RESTful authentication requests. When users attempt to authenticate to the UI, AM signs a JSON Web Token (JWT) containing this shared secret. The JWT contains the authentication session ID, realm, and authentication index type value, but does not contain the user’s credentials.

When modifying this value, ensure the new shared secret is Base-64 encoded and at least 128 bits in length.

amster attribute: sharedSecret

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-hmac-signing-shared-secret

Post Authentication Processing

The following properties are available under the Post Authentication Processing tab:

Default Success Login URL

Accepts a list of values that specifies where users are directed after successful authentication. The format of this attribute is client-type|URL although the only value you can specify at this time is a URL which assumes the type HTML. The default value is /openam/console. Values that do not specify HTTP have that appended to the deployment URI.

amster attribute: loginSuccessUrl

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-login-success-url

Default Failure Login URL

Accepts a list of values that specifies where users are directed after authentication has failed. The format of this attribute is client-type|URL although the only value you can specify at this time is a URL which assumes the type HTML. Values that do not specify HTTP have that appended to the deployment URI.

amster attribute: loginFailureUrl

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-login-failure-url

Authentication Post Processing Classes

Specifies one or more Java classes used to customize post-authentication processes for successful or unsuccessful logins. The Java class must implement the com.sun.identity.authentication.spi.AMPostAuthProcessInterface AM interface.

A .jar file containing the post processing class belongs in the WEB-INF/lib directory of the deployed AM instance. If you do not build a .jar file, add the class files under WEB-INF/classes. For deployment, add the .jar file or classes into a custom AM .war file.

For information on creating post-authentication plugins, see Create Post-Authentication Plugins for Chains.

This setting applies only to modules within authentication chains.

For information about post-authentication processing for trees, see Create post-authentication hooks for trees.

amster attribute: loginPostProcessClass

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-post-login-process-class

Generate UserID Mode

When enabled, the Membership module generates a list of alternate user identifiers if the one entered by a user during the self-registration process is not valid or already exists. The user IDs are generated by the class specified in the Pluggable User Name Generator Class property.

This setting applies only to modules within authentication chains.

amster attribute: usernameGeneratorEnabled

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-username-generator-enabled

Pluggable User Name Generator Class

Specifies the name of the class used to generate alternate user identifiers when Generate UserID Mode is enabled. The default value is com.sun.identity.authentication.spi.DefaultUserIDGenerator.

This setting applies only to modules within authentication chains.

amster attribute: usernameGeneratorClass

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-auth-username-generator-class

User Attribute Mapping to Session Attribute

Enables the authenticating user’s identity attributes (stored in the identity repository) to be set as session properties in the user’s SSO token. The value takes the format User-Profile-Attribute|Session-Attribute-Name. If Session-Attribute-Name is not specified, the value of User-Profile-Attribute is used. All session attributes contain the am.protected prefix to ensure that they cannot be edited by the client applications.

For example, if you define the user profile attribute as mail and the user’s email address, available in the user session, as user.mail, the entry for this attribute would be mail|user.mail. After a successful authentication, the SSOToken.getProperty(String) method is used to retrieve the user profile attribute set in the session. The user’s email address is retrieved from the user’s session using the SSOToken.getProperty("am.protected.user.mail") method call.

Properties that are set in the user session using User Attribute Mapping to Session Attributes cannot be modified (for example, SSOToken.setProperty(String, String)). This results in an SSOException. Multivalued attributes, such as memberOf, are listed as a single session variable with a | separator.

When configuring authentication for a realm configured for client-side sessions, be careful not to add so many session attributes that the session cookie size exceeds the maximum allowable cookie size. For more information about client-side session cookies, see Session cookies and session security.

The User Attribute Mapping to Session Attribute property only applies to modules within authentication chains.

For authentication trees, use the Scripted Decision node to retrieve user attributes and session properties, or the Set Session Properties node for session properties only.

amster attribute: userAttributeSessionMapping

ssoadm attribute: sunAMUserAttributesSessionMapping

Deployment configuration

Under Deployment, you can manage different configurations for AM server instances, and site configurations when using multiple AM server instances.

Configure servers

AM server properties reside in two places:

The default configuration, under Configure > Server Defaults.
Per-server basis configuration, under Deployment > Servers > Server Name.

Default server properties are applied to all server instances, and can be overridden on a per-server basis. Changes to the value of a default server property are applied to all servers that are not overriding that property. The ability to set default properties and override them for an individual server lets you keep a set of properties with identical configuration across the environment, while providing the flexibility to change properties on specific servers when required.

A closed lock means inherited, an open lock means localized.

Figure 1. Inherited properties

A closed lock means the property is inherited from the defaults. To change an inherited value click on the lock, and the property will become localized for that server.
An open lock means the property is localized for this server. To return to the inherited values, click on the lock.

The Advanced section also takes values from the defaults, but the properties do not have locks for inheritance. Instead, if you want to override a particular advanced property value on a per-server basis, you need to add that property with its new value under Deployment > Servers > Server Name > Advanced.

After changing server configurations, restart AM or the web application container where AM runs for the changes to take effect unless otherwise noted.

General properties

The General page provides access to properties, such as site configuration, server base installation directory, default locale, debug levels, and other properties.

Site

The following properties are available under the Site tab:

property: com.sun.am.event.connection.disable.list

Possible values are:

aci. Obtain notification changes to the aci attribute.
um. Obtain notification changes in AM’s user store. For example, modifying a password.
sm. Obtain notification changes in AM’s configuration store. For example, modifying a realm.

LDAP connection

The following properties are available under the LDAP Connection tab:

Number of retries for LDAP Connection: Specifies the maximum number of attempts to reestablish LDAP connections.

Default: 3

property: com.iplanet.am.ldap.connection.num.retries
Delay between LDAP connection retries: Specifies the time, in milliseconds, between attempts to reestablish LDAP connections.

Default: 1000

property: com.iplanet.am.ldap.connection.delay.between.retries
Error Codes for LDAP connection retries: Specifies the LDAP error codes for which AM retries rather than returning failure.

Default: 80,81,91

property: com.iplanet.am.ldap.connection.ldap.error.codes.retries

Caching and replica

The following properties are available under the Caching and Replica tab:

SDK Caching Max. Size: Specifies the cache size used when SDK caching is enabled. The size should be an integer greater than 0, or the default size of 10000 will be used.

Changes to this property clear the contents of the cache. No server restart is necessary.

Default: 10000

property: com.iplanet.am.sdk.cache.maxSize
SDK Replica Retries: Specifies the maximum number of attempts to retry when an entry not found error is returned to the SDK.

Changes to this property take effect immediately. No server restart is necessary.

Default: 0

property: com.iplanet.am.replica.num.retries
Delay between SDK Replica Retries: Specifies the time in milliseconds between attempts to retrieve entries through the SDK.

Changes to this property take effect immediately. No server restart is necessary.

Default: 1000

property: com.iplanet.am.replica.delay.between.retries

Time to live configuration

The following properties are available under the Time to Live Configuration tab:

Cache Entry Expiration Enabled: When disabled, cache entries expire based on the User Entry Expiration Time property.

Default: Disabled

property: com.iplanet.am.sdk.cache.entry.expire.enabled
User Entry Expiration Time: Specifies the time in minutes for which user entries remain valid in cache after their last modification. When AM accesses a user entry that has expired, it reads the entry from the directory server instead of from the cache.

Default: 15

property: com.iplanet.am.sdk.cache.entry.user.expire.time
Default Entry Expiration Time: Specifies the time in minutes for which non-user entries remain valid in cache after their last modification. When AM accesses a non-user entry that has expired, it reads the entry from the directory server instead of from the cache.

Default: 30

property: com.iplanet.am.sdk.cache.entry.default.expire.time

CTS properties

The Core Token Service (CTS) does not need to be configured in the same LDAP storage as the configuration store. The CTS can instead be configured on its own external directory server. There are some specific requirements for indexing and replication which need to be accounted for. In particular, WAN replication is an important consideration which needs to be handled carefully for optimum performance.

You may also choose to set advanced properties related to token size, including com.sun.identity.session.repository.enableEncryption, com.sun.identity.session.repository.enableCompression, and com.sun.identity.session.repository.enableAttributeCompression. For more information about these three properties, see Advanced properties.

CTS token store

The following properties are available under the CTS Token Store tab:

Store Mode: Specifies whether AM stores CTS tokens in the default token store or in an external token store.

CTS tokens are stored in the same data store used for the AM configuration when you specify the Default Token Store option. When specifying this option, you can only configure the properties available under the CTS Token Store tab.

You can separate the CTS store from the AM configuration on different external servers by selecting the External Token Store option. When specifying this option, you can configure the properties available under both the CTS Token Store and the External Store Configuration tabs.
Root Suffix: For either default or external token stores, specifies the base DN for CTS storage information in LDAP format, such as cn=cts,ou=famrecords,ou=openam-session,ou=tokens. The Root Suffix specifies a database that can be maintained and replicated separately from the standard user data store.
Max Connections: Specifies the maximum number of remote connections to the external data store. For affinity deployments, this property specifies the maximum number of remote connections to each directory server in the connection string.

Default: 100

For suggested settings, see Tuning CTS Store LDAP Connections.
Page Size: The number of results per page returned from the underlying CTS datastore.

If the result set is smaller than the page size, the number of results will never be paginated. If larger, the number of pages returned will be the result set size divided by the page size.

Increasing the page size results in fewer round trips to the CTS datastore when retrieving large result sets.

To return all results and disable pagination, set to 0.

Default: 0
VLV Page Size: The number of results per page returned from the underlying CTS datastore when using virtual list views (VLVs). Larger values will result in fewer round trips to the datastore when retrieving large result sets, and VLVs are enabled on the datastore.

For more information on VLVs, see Virtual List View Index in the DS documentation.

Default: 10

External store configuration

AM honors the following properties when External Token Store is selected under the CTS Token Store tab:

SSL/TLS Enabled

When enabled, AM accesses the external directory service using StartTLS or SSL.

Connection String(s)

Specifies the ordered list of connection strings for external DS servers. The format is HOST:PORT[|SERVERID[|SITEID]], where HOST:PORT are the LDAP server and its port. SERVERID and SITEID are optional parameters to specify an AM instance that prioritizes the particular connection. This does not exclude other AM instances from using that connection, although they must have no remaining priority connections available to them before they use it.

When a failed DS server becomes available again, AM instances create new connections to it based on the order specified in the list.

Examples for active/passive deployments:

cts-dj1.example.com:389,cts-dj2.example.com:389: Every AM instance accesses cts-dj1.example.com:389 for all CTS operations. If it goes down, they access cts-dj2.example.com:389.

Every instance will open new connections to cts-dj1.example.com:389 when it becomes available.
cts-dj1.example.com:389|1|1,cts-dj2.example.com:389|2|1: Server 1 site 1 gives priority to cts-dj1.example.com:389. Server 2 site 1 gives priority to cts-dj2.example.com:389. Any server not specified accesses the first server on the list, while it is available.

If cts-dj1.example.com:389 goes down, server 1 site 1 accesses cts-dj2.example.com:389. Any server not specified access the second server on the list.

If cts-dj2.example.com:389 goes down, server 2 site 1 accesses cts-dj1.example.com:389. Any server not specified still accesses the first server on the list.

Server 1 site 1 and any server not specified will open new connections to cts-dj1.example.com:389 when it becomes available. Only server 2 site 1 will open new connections to cts-dj2.example.com:389 when it becomes available.
cts-dj1.example.com:389|1|1,cts-dj2.example.com:389|1|1,cts-dj3.example.com:389|1|2: Server 1 site 1 gives priority to cts-dj1.example.com:389. Any server not specified accesses the first server on the list, while it is available.

If cts-dj1.example.com goes down, server 1 site 1 accesses cts-dj2.example.com:389. Any server not specified accesses the second server on the list.

If both cts-dj1.example.com and cts-dj2.example.com go down, server 1 site 1 accesses cts-dj3.example.com:389 in site 2. Any server not specified accesses the third server on the list.

Server 1 site 1 and any server not specified will open new connections to any server in site 1 when they become available, with cts-dj1.example.com being the preferred server.

Example for affinity deployments:

cts-dj1.example.com:389,cts-dj2.example.com:389,cts-dj3.example.com:389,cts-dj4.example.com:389: Access CTS tokens from one of the four servers listed in the connection string. For any given CTS token, AM determines the token’s affinity for one of the four servers, and always accesses the token from that same server. Tokens are distributed equally across the four servers.

Login Id

Specifies the user, in DN format, needed to authenticate to the external data store. The user needs sufficient privileges to read and write to the root suffix of the external data store.

Password

Specifies the password associated with the login ID.

Heartbeat

Specifies how often AM should send a heartbeat request to the directory server to ensure that the connection does not remain idle, in seconds. Configure the heartbeat to ensure that network hardware, such as routers and firewalls, does not drop the connection between AM and the directory server.

Default: 10

Affinity Enabled

When enabled, specifies whether to access the CTS token store by using multiple directory instances in an affinity deployment rather than a single master directory instance using an active/passive deployment.

When you enable this option, you must ensure that the value of the Connection String(s) property is identical for every server in multi-server deployments.

Default: Disabled

com.iplanet.am.lbcookie.name

Used with sticky load balancers that can inspect the cookie value.

Default: amlbcookie

com.iplanet.am.lbcookie.value

Used with sticky load balancers that can inspect the cookie value. The value of this property defaults to the unique AM server ID, although you can set your own unique value.

To improve AM server performance, keep the value of the cookie set to the AM server ID when using Web Agents.

If you have replaced the value of the this property and you need to match the AM server URLs with their corresponding server IDs, query the global-config/servers endpoint. For example:

com.sun.embedded.replicationport

Replication port for the embedded DS server.

Default: 8989

com.sun.embedded.sync.servers

This property applies to multi-server AM deployments that use the embedded DS store.

When this property is set to on, AM servers check during startup to determine whether the replication settings for the embedded store are consistent with the number of servers in the site. If they are not consistent, AM reconfigures replication to match the existing number of servers in the site.

Set this property on a per-server basis by navigating to Deployment > Servers > Server Name > Advanced, rather than globally under Configure > Server Defaults.

Default: on

com.sun.identity.am.cookie.check

Default: AMAuthCookie

com.sun.identity.authentication.client.ipAddressHeader

Set the name of the HTTP header that AM can examine to learn the client IP address when requests go through a proxy or load balancer. (When requests go through an HTTP proxy or load balancer, checking the IP address on the request alone returns the address of the proxy or load balancer rather than that of the client.) AM must be able to trust the proxy or load balancer to set the client IP address correctly in the header specified.

Example: com.sun.identity.authentication.client.ipAddressHeader=X-Forwarded-For

com.sun.identity.authentication.multiple.tabs.used

You must manually create a user account for the new administrative user in the configuration data store that has the same privileges as the uid=admin user.

The amAdmin account is "hard-coded" in the source of several files. The code in these files may affect the functionality of a top-level administrative user with a name other than amAdmin.

Default: uid=amAdmin,ou=People,dc=openam,dc=forgerock,dc=org

com.sun.identity.authentication.uniqueCookieName

When cookie hijacking protection is configured, name of the cookie holding the URL to the AM server that authenticated the user.

Default: sunIdentityServerAuthNServer

Default: false

com.sun.identity.cookie.samesite

Configures support for applying SameSite cookie rules, as per internet-draft Cookies:HTTP State Management Mechanism.

Available settings are as follows:

strict

Requests originating from different domains will not have cookies sent with them.

When this mode is enabled, any AM functionality that relies on requests being redirected back to the AM instance may not operate correctly. For example, OAuth 2.0 flows and SAML federation may not operate correctly if AM cannot access the required cookies.

lax

Cookies received from different domains cannot be accessed, unless the request is using a top-level request and uses a "safe" HTTP method, such as GET, HEAD, OPTIONS, and TRACE.

off

No restrictions on the domain of cookies is applied. This is the default setting.

You must disable SameSite support if any of the following is true:

You have set Access-Control-Allow-Credentials=true in your CORS configuration.

For more information on configuring CORS in AM, refer to Configuring CORS Support.
You are using SAML HTTP-POST bindings.

For example, IDP-initiated single logout (SLO) functionality will not operate correctly if SameSite support is enabled, as the iPlanetDirectoryPro cookie would not be accessible in cross-domain POST requests. For more information on SAML single logout, refer to Implement SSO and SLO.

Default: off

com.sun.identity.enableUniqueSSOTokenCookie

If true, then AM is using protection against cookie hijacking.

Default: false

com.sun.identity.jss.donotInstallAtHighestPriority

Default: 10:10:10, meaning evaluation of rules, then conditions, then subjects

com.sun.identity.policy.resultsCacheMaxSize

Maximum number of policy decisions AM caches.

Default: 10000

com.sun.identity.security.checkcaller

Whether to perform a Java security permissions check for AM.

Default: false

com.sun.identity.server.fqdnMap

Enables virtual hosts, partial hostname and IP address. Maps invalid or virtual name keys to valid FQDN values for proper redirection.

To map myserver to myserver.example.com, set com.sun.identity.server.fqdnMap[myserver]=myserver.example.com.

com.sun.identity.session.repository.enableAttributeCompression

For additional compression of CTS token JSON binaries, beyond GZip, if desired.

Default: false

com.sun.identity.session.repository.enableCompression

For GZip-based compression of CTS tokens, if desired.

Default: false

com.sun.identity.session.repository.enableEncryption

Enables tokens to be encrypted when stored.

Multi-instance deployments require consistent use of this property, which should be configured under Configure > Server Defaults > Advanced.

The am.encryption.pwd property must also be the same for all deployed instances. You can set the Password Encryption Key property under Deployment > Servers > Server Name > Security. Verify that all servers have the same setting for this property.

Default: false

com.sun.identity.sm.cache.enabled

Default: 30000

com.sun.identity.urlchecker.dorequest

Whether to perform an HTTP GET on com.sun.identity.urlchecker.targeturl as a health check against another server in the same site.

If set to false, then AM only checks the Socket connection, and does not perform an HTTP GET.

If each AM server runs behind a reverse proxy, then the default setting of true means the health check actually runs against the AM instance, rather than checking only the Socket to the reverse proxy.

Default: true

com.sun.identity.urlchecker.targeturl

openam.auth.destroy_session_after_upgrade

Where to destroy the old session after a session is successfully upgraded.

Default: true

openam.auth.distAuthCookieName

Cookie used by the AM distributed authentication service to handle the authentication process.

Default: AMDistAuthCookie

openam.auth.session_property_upgrader

Class that controls which session properties are copied during session upgrade, where default is to copy all properties to the upgraded session.

Default: org.forgerock.openam.authentication.service.DefaultSessionPropertyUpgrader

openam.auth.version.header.enabled

The X-DSAMEVersion http header provides detailed information about the version of AM currently running on the system, including the build and date/time of the build. AM will need to be restarted once this property is enabled.

Default: false

openam.authentication.ignore_goto_during_logout

Whether to ignore the goto query string parameter on logout, instead displaying the logout page.

Default: false

openam.cdm.default.charset

Character set used for globalization.

Default: UTF-8

openam.forbidden.to.copy.headers

Comma-separated list of HTTP headers not to copy when the distributed authentication server forwards a request to another distributed authentication server.

Default: connection

openam.forbidden.to.copy.request.headers

Comma-separated list of HTTP headers not to copy when the distributed authentication server forwards a request to another distributed authentication server.

Default: connection

openam.retained.http.request.headers: Comma-separated list of HTTP headers to copy to the forwarded request when the server forwards a request to another server.

Requests are forwarded when the server receiving the request is not the server that originally initiated authentication. The server that originally initiated authentication is identified by a cookie.

When the distributed authentication service (DAS) is in use, then the cookie is the AMDistAuthCookie that identifies the DAS server by its URL.

When authentication is done directly on AM, then the cookie is the AMAuthCookie that holds a session ID that identifies the AM server.

On subsequent requests the server receiving the request checks the cookie. If the cookie identifies another server, the current server forwards the request to that server.

When configuring the distributed authentication service, or when a reverse proxy is set up to provide the client IP address in the X-Forwarded-For header, if your deployment includes multiple AM servers, then this property must be set to include the header.

Example: openam.retained.http.request.headers=X-DSAMEVersion,X-Forwarded-For

AM copies the header when forwarding a request to the authoritative server where the client originally began the authentication process, so that the authoritative AM server receiving the forwarded request can determine the real client IP address.

In order to retain headers to return in the response to the AM server that forwarded the request, use the property openam.retained.http.headers.

Default: X-DSAMEVersion
openam.session.case.sensitive.uuid: Whether universal user IDs are considered case sensitive when matching them.

Default: false

org.forgerock.allow.http.client.debug

Whether AM can output logging at the Message level for the org.apache.http.wire and org.apache.http.headers logging appenders.

Possible values are:

true. The appenders' debug log level can take the same value as AM’s, even Message.

The appenders can log cleartext passwords or sensitive information related to client interactions. For example, scripted authentication or STS transactions.

Enable this property for debugging purposes only when required.

false. The appender’s debug log level is always warning, unless debug is disabled.

You can also set this property as a JVM option in the container where AM runs.
Default: false

org.forgerock.openam.http.ssl.connection.manager

The class that implements the org.forgerock.openam.http.SslConnectionManager interface, which controls both keystore and truststore settings, as well as hostname verification.

If the container in which AM runs is configured with the java.protocol.handler.pkgs property set, then ensure this property is set to com.sun.identity.protocol.AmSslConnectionManager.

In previous versions of AM, this property was named opensso.protocol.handler.pkgs, and required a value of com.sun.identity.protocol if the java.protocol.handler.pkgs property was set by the container.

org.forgerock.openam.audit.identity.activity.events.blacklist

A comma-separated list of audit events that will not be logged.

The following events can be suppressed:

AM-ACCESS-ATTEMPT.
AM-IDENTITY-CHANGE.
AM-GROUP-CHANGE.

Logging these additional events can impact performance.

Default: AM-ACCESS-ATTEMPT,AM-IDENTITY-CHANGE,AM-GROUP-CHANGE

org.forgerock.openam.authLevel.excludeRequiredOrRequisite

Whether a session’s authentication level is always the highest authentication level of any authentication module that passed, even if requisite or required modules in the authentication chain weren’t executed. For more information, refer to About Authentication Levels for Chains.

Default: false

org.forgerock.embedded.dsadminport

Administration port for the embedded DS server.

Default: 4444

org.forgerock.openam.auth.audit.nodes.enabled

When true, AM generates audit log messages for each authentication node reached during authentication tree flows.

Possible values are true or false.

Default: true

org.forgerock.openam.auth.audit.trees.enabled

When true, AM generates audit log messages with the outcome of authentication tree flows.

Possible values are true or false.

Default: true

org.forgerock.openam.auth.transactionauth.returnErrorOnAuthFailure

Whether AM returns an HTTP 200 or HTTP 401 message when the user fails to complete the required actions to perform session upgrade during transactional authorization. Possible values are:

false. AM returns an HTTP 200 message with the original SSO token.

For example:
```
{
    "tokenId": "AQIC5wM...TU3OQ*",
    "successUrl": "http://example.com/index.html",
    "realm": "/"
}
```
In this case, the user is redirected to the success URL and, when trying to access the protected resource, policy evaluation will fail since transactional authorization has failed.

true. AM returns an HTTP 401 message.

For example:

{
    "code":401,
    "reason":"Unauthorized",
    "message":"Login failure",
    "detail":{
        "failureUrl":"http://example.com/unauthorized.html"
    }
}

In this case, the user is redirected to the failure URL.

Default: false

org.forgerock.openam.authentication.accountExpire.days

Days until account expiration set after successful authentication by the account expiration post-authentication plugin.

Default: 30

org.forgerock.openam.authentication.forceAuth.enabled

This property has no effect on authentication trees; it applies to authentication chains only.

Enables or disables the ForceAuth authentication parameter. If this property is set to false, the ForceAuth parameter will always be false, regardless of what the administrator sets. If this property is true, the configured value of the ForceAuth parameter is respected.

In new installations, this property is set to false by default, which means that the value of ForceAuth is always false.

When you upgrade AM, this property is set to true by default, which means that the value of ForceAuth is respected.

If you do not need ForceAuth to be enabled, it is strongly recommended that you set org.forgerock.openam.authentication.forceAuth.enabled to false.

Default: false for new installations, true for upgraded installations

org.forgerock.openam.console.autocomplete.enabled

Specifies whether input forms and password fields can be autocompleted. This property only affects end-user pages in the classic UI. Possible values are true, to enable autocomplete, and false, to disable it.

Default: true

org.forgerock.openam.core.resource.lookup.cache.enabled

Controls whether the results of resource file lookup should be cached.

While you are customizing the UI as described in UI customization, set this property to false to allow AM immediately to pick up changes to the files as you customize them.

Reset this to the default, true, when using AM in production.

Default: true

org.forgerock.openam.core.sms.always.fail.on.invalid.attributes

Specifies whether the server should throw an exception, when it encounters an unknown attribute while parsing file-based configurations. By default, the server ignores any unknown attributes, and does not throw an exception. To override this behavior, set this property to true.

Default: false

org.forgerock.openam.core.sms.placeholder_api_enabled

For file-based configurations, enables property value substitution.

Takes the following values:

ON enables property value substitution for all property types.
STRING_ONLY enables property value substitution for properties with string values only.
OFF disables property value substitution.

Default: OFF

The recommended way to enable property value substitution is through a Java system property, rather than with this advanced server property.

org.forgerock.openam.cts.rest.enabled: Enables access to the CTS REST endpoint /json/tokens.

Even when access to the CTS REST endpoint is enabled, only the AM global administrator has authorization to perform operations against /json/tokens.

Default: false

After changing this property, you must restart AM or the container in which it runs for the change to take effect.
org.forgerock.openam.encryption.key.digest: Determines the digest algorithm used along with PBKDF2 key derivation method for AES Key Wrap encryption. Possible values are SHA1, SHA256, SHA384, or SHA512.

Set this property in AM’s web container’s startup script. For more information, refer to Use stronger encryption algorithms.

Default: SHA1
org.forgerock.openam.encryption.key.iterations: The number of iterations for the key derivation process specified in the org.forgerock.openam.encryption.key.digest advanced property.

Set this property in AM’s web container’s startup script. For more information, refer to Use stronger encryption algorithms.

org.forgerock.openam.encryption.key.size: The size of the derived key for the AES Key Wrap encryption operations.

Set this property in AM’s web container’s startup script. For more information, refer to Use stronger encryption algorithms.

Default: 128
org.forgerock.openam.encryption.useextractandexpand: Enables the algorithm introduced in AM 7.1 that reduces the performance cost of AES Key Wrap encryption even when high iteration counts are used. Possible values are true, to enable it, and false to disable it.

If you configure a large iteration count when this property is set to false, AM startup times may refer to a performance impact if there are many agents in your deployment.

Set this property in AM’s web container’s startup script. For more information, refer to Use stronger encryption algorithms.

Default: false
org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.clients.connection.timeout: Specifies the time that new client connections using ForgeRock’s ClientHandler code will wait before timing out.

The value is a string specifying a number and a unit of time.

Restart AM or the container in which it runs for the change to take effect.

Default: 10 seconds
org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.clients.max.connections: Specifies the maximum number of connections allowed in the pool available for clients using ForgeRock’s ClientHandler code.

Use this property only when the org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.clients.reuse.connections.enabled advanced server property is enabled.

Restart AM or the container in which it runs for the change to take effect.

Default: 64
org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.clients.pool.ttl: Specifies, in milliseconds, the maximum time-to-live for pooled clients connections using ForgeRock’s ClientHandler code.

Restart AM or the container in which it runs for the change to take effect.

Restart AM or the container in which it runs for the change to take effect.

Default: true
org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.nonProxyHosts: Lists the target hosts for which requests should not be proxied. Hostnames are separated by commas.

This property supports wildcards at the start and end of any value. For example, *.example.com would result in a match for customers.example.com and staff.example.com, and requests would not be proxied for those target hosts.

Configure alongside the org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.uri, org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.username, and org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.password advanced server properties.

Default: localhost,127.*,[::1],0.0.0.0,[::0]
org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.enabled: When set to true, AM routes outgoing ForgeRock’s ClientHandler code requests through the HTTP proxy defined on the JVM.

Restart AM or the container in which it runs for the change to take effect.

Default: Not set
org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.password: Specifies the password of the proxy that AM will use to route outgoing ForgeRock’s ClientHandler code requests.

Configure alongside the org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.username, org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.uri, and org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.nonProxyHosts advanced server properties.

Restart AM or the container in which it runs for the change to take effect.

Default: Not set
org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.uri: Specifies the URI of the proxy that AM will use to route outgoing ForgeRock’s ClientHandler code requests. The URI must be in the format scheme://hostname:port. For example, https://myproxy.example.com:443.

If the proxy requires authentication, also configure the org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.username and org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.password properties, and, optionally, the org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.nonProxyHosts property.

This property takes precedence over the org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.enabled advanced server property and its related JVM properties.

For more information, refer to Configuring AM for Outbound Communication.

Restart AM or the container in which it runs for the change to take effect.

Default: Not set
org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.username: Specifies the username of the proxy that AM will use to route outgoing ForgeRock’s ClientHandler code requests.

Configure alongside the org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.password and org.forgerock.openam.httpclienthandler.system.proxy.uri advanced server properties.

Restart AM or the container in which it runs for the change to take effect.

Default: Not set
org.forgerock.openam.idm.attribute.names.lower.case: Specifies whether the fields in JSON responses are always returned in lowercase. When true, AM converts the fields to lowercase.

Default: false

org.forgerock.openam.introspect.token.query.param.allowed

Specifies whether AM allows HTTP GET requests, and the use of token as a query parameter in POST requests, on the oauth2/introspect endpoint.

For security reasons, and in accordance with the OAuth 2.0 Token Introspection specification, AM disallows HTTP GET requests on the introspection endpoint, and requires HTTP POST requests instead. AM also disallows the use of token as a query parameter in a POST request on that endpoint; for example, /oauth2/introspect?token=access-token.

If your clients in an existing deployment need to send a GET request or token as a query parameter to the oauth2/introspect endpoint, you can change this setting to true. However, it is recommended that you adjust your clients to use the more secure setting.

Default: false

org.forgerock.openam.ldap.default.time.limit

Configures the client-side timeout, in milliseconds, applied to LDAP operations performed with the Netscape LDAP SDK.

Default: 0 (no time limit)

org.forgerock.openam.ldap.dncache.expire.time

Sets the DN cache timeout, in milliseconds, after which an entry should be removed from the cache. A value of 0 means that the DN cache will not expire, and entries will not be removed automatically.

Setting this value too low can have a severe performance impact.

Default: 0 (no time limit)

org.forgerock.openam.ldap.heartbeat.timeout

Specifies the number of seconds that AM should wait for a heartbeat operation to the DS server to complete, before considering the connection unavailable.

Some network administrators configure firewalls and load balancers to drop connections that are idle for too long. You can turn this off by setting the value to 0.

Default: 10

org.forgerock.openam.ldap.secure.protocol.version

The protocols AM uses to connect to a secure LDAP server.

Specify a single value, for example TLSv1.2, for AM to use only that protocol when connecting to affected external resources. Refer to Secure network communication for a list of these resources.

Specify a comma-separated list with multiple protocols for AM to use the most secure protocol supported by the external resources.

For environments using Java 11 and later, a value of TLSv1.3,TLSv1.2 means that AM attempts to use the TLSv1.3 protocol to connect to external configuration and user data stores, but if a TLSv1.3 connection is not supported, AM uses TLSv1.2.

Upgrading to Java 11 (versions 11.0.11, 1.8.0_291 and later) disables protocol versions TLSv1 and TLSv1.1, which are considered less secure and are now deprecated.

Default: TLSv1.3,TLSv1.2

org.forgerock.openam.notifications.agents.enabled

Controls whether to publish notifications for consumption by web agents and Java agents.

This property does not apply to web or Java agent versions earlier than version 5. If the deployment uses only earlier versions of web and Java agents, you can set this property to false.

Default: true

org.forgerock.openam.oauth2.client.graceperiod.disabled

Lets you override the default maximum refresh token grace period.

By default, you cannot set a grace period that exceeds 120 seconds. Setting this server property to true disables the maximum and lets you set any grace period up to the maximum positive integer value. This value affects the refresh token grace period set in the OAuth2.0 provider configuration or on any OAuth 2.0 clients.

Having a long grace period poses a security risk. You should therefore keep the grace period as small as possible. Exceeding the default maximum of 120 seconds is not recommended.

Default: false

org.forgerock.openam.openidconnect.allow.open.dynamic.registration

Controls whether OpenID Connect clients can register dynamically without providing an access token.

If you set this to true in production, take care to limit or throttle dynamic client registrations.

Default: false

org.forgerock.openam.radius.server.context.cache.size

Maximum number of RADIUS client sessions that can be cached concurrently on the AM server.

Default: 5000

org.forgerock.openam.redirecturlvalidator.maxUrlLength

Specifies the maximum length of redirection URLs validated by AM. The Validation Service and other AM services perform redirection URL validation.

The default value should be adequate in most cases. Increase the default value as needed if messages similar to the following appear in your debug log files with message-level debugging enabled:

RedirectUrlValidator.isRedirectUrlValid: The url was length 2015 which is longer than the allowed maximum of 2000

Default: 2000

org.forgerock.openam.request.max.bytes.entity.size

Specifies the maximum size of the body of any request made to AM. For more information, refer to Limit the size of the request body.

The property is hot-swappable. You do not need to restart AM for the changes to take effect.

Default: 1 MB (1048576 bytes)

org.forgerock.openam.secrets.keystore.keyid.provider

Specifies the name of the KeyStoreKeyIdProvider implementation AM uses to provide key ID (kids) to public keys when AM is configured as an OAuth 2.0 authorization server.

For more information, refer to Customizing Public Key IDs.

Default: org.forgerock.openam.secrets.DefaultKeyStoreKeyIdProvider.

org.forgerock.openam.secrets.googlekms.decryptionkey

Specifies the fully qualified resource ID of the Google Cloud KMS secret used to decrypt secrets as they are read from the filesystem, environment variables, or system properties.

This property may also specify the Google Cloud KMS secret used to decrypt the hash of the password of the amAdmin user, if the value of the org.forgerock.openam.secrets.special.user.passwords.format advanced server property is set to GOOGLE_KMS_ENCRYPTED.

Only one key can be specified at a time.

For more information, refer to Using Google Cloud KMS Secrets to Decrypt AM Secrets and Store the amAdmin password in a secret store.

This property has no default.

org.forgerock.openam.secrets.special.user.passwords.format

The format used to store the hash of the amAdmin user password.

Possible values are:

ENCRYPTED_PLAIN. The hash is encrypted with the AM encryption key.
PLAIN. The hash is unencrypted. The password must be randomly generated and have high entropy.
GOOGLE_KMS_ENCRYPTED. The hash is encrypted with the Google Cloud KMS secret specified in the org.forgerock.openam.secrets.googlekms.decryptionkey advanced server property.

For more information, refer to Store the amAdmin password in a secret store.

Default: ENCRYPTED_PLAIN

org.forgerock.openam.secrets.special.user.secret.refresh.seconds

The period, in seconds, after which the special administrator secret cache expires.

For details, refer to Store the amAdmin password in a secret store.

Default: 900 (15 minutes)

org.forgerock.openam.session.stateless.encryption.method

Sets the encryption method for client-side sessions. Possible values are:

A128CBC-HS256. AES 128-bit in CBC mode using HMAC-SHA-256-128 hash (HS256 truncated to 128 bits)
A192CBC-HS384. AES 192-bit in CBC mode using HMAC-SHA-384-192 hash (HS384 truncated to 192 bits)
A256CBC-HS512. AES 256-bit in CBC mode using HMAC-SHA-512-256 hash (HS512 truncated to 256 bits)
A128GCM. AES 128-bit in GCM mode
A192GCM. AES 192-bit in GCM mode
A256GCM. AES 256-bit in GCM mode

Default: A128CBC-HS256

org.forgerock.openam.session.stateless.logout.cache.expiryCheckIntervalSeconds

The period (in seconds) after which the logout token cache purges expired entries. Changes to this property require a server restart.

Default: 60

For more information, refer to Invalidate all sessions for a user.

org.forgerock.openam.session.stateless.rsa.padding

Sets the padding mode for RSA encryption of client-side sessions. Possible values are:

RSA1_5. RSA with PKCS#1 v1.5 padding.
RSA-OAEP. RSA with OAEP and SHA-1.
RSA-OAEP-256. RSA with OAEP padding and SHA-256.

Default: RSA-OAEP-256

org.forgerock.openam.session.stateless.signing.allownone

Specifies whether signing client-side sessions is enabled. When true, AM allows selecting NONE as the signing algorithm for client-side sessions under Configure > Global Services > Session > Client-Side Sessions.

org.forgerock.openam.smtp.system.connect.timeout

Specifies the amount of time, in milliseconds, that AM waits before considering that an outbound SMTP connection is unavailable.

Default: 10000

org.forgerock.openam.smtp.system.socket.read.timeout

Specifies the amount of time, in milliseconds, that AM waits for an SMTP read request to receive an acknowledgement before returning an error.

Default: 10000

org.forgerock.openam.smtp.system.socket.write.timeout

Specifies the amount of time, in milliseconds, that AM waits for an SMTP write request to receive an acknowledgement before returning an error.

Default: 10000

org.forgerock.openam.slf4j.enableTraceInMessage

Controls whether trace-level logging messages are generated when message-level debug logging is enabled in AM.

Certain components that run in AM’s JVM, such as embedded DS configuration stores, write a large volume of trace-level debug records that are not required for troubleshooting in many cases. With this option set to false, trace-level debug records are not written for these components.

If you set this to true in production, take care to monitor the amount of disk space occupied by the AM debug logs.

Default: false

org.forgerock.openam.sso.providers.list

Specifies an ordered list of SSO providers. AM chooses the first applicable provider depending on the context for the requested SSO operation.

Default: org.forgerock.openidconnect.ssoprovider.OpenIdConnectSSOProvider, org.forgerock.openam.sso.providers.stateless.StatelessSSOProvider

org.forgerock.openam.trees.consumedstatedata.cache.size

Specifies the maximum number of trees in a realm for which to cache the results of "state" scans.

AM recursively scans the nodes and paths in authentication trees to determine the state data that each node consumes. Caching this information for a number of trees in each realm means AM does not have to make multiple calls to get the tree’s structure.

If you have many complex authentication trees and a large number of realms, increasing this value may reduce the impact on performance of the consumed state scans.

Default: 15

org.forgerock.openam.xui.user.session.validation.enabled

Changes the UI’s behavior when a user session expires. Possible values are false, where the user notices that their session has expired when trying to interact with the UI and they are redirected to the login screen, or true, where AM redirects the user to a page with the session expired message when their session expires. This prevents the display of possible sensitive information on the screen after a session expires.

This setting does not apply to those users that are global or realm administrators, for example, amAdmin.

Default: true

org.forgerock.openidconnect.ssoprovider.maxcachesize

Maximum size in entries of the OpenIdConnectSSOProvider provider’s cache. This cache is used to map OIDC tokens to SSO tokens for quick lookup.

Default: 5000

org.forgerock.policy.subject.evaluation.cache.size

Maintains a record of subject IDs matched or not matched in a given session. The cache is keyed on the token ID and the session is cleared when destroyed.

Default: 10000

org.forgerock.security.entitlement.enforce.realm: By default, calls to the subjectattributes endpoint are enforced per realm.

Refer to Query subject attributes for details.

Default: true

org.forgerock.security.oauth2.enforce.sub.claim.uniqueness

Specifies the format of the subject (sub) claim of an OAuth 2.0 access token, logout token, and OIDC ID token.

AM accepts tokens that use the old sub format, even if you enable this property. Before enabling this property, ensure that your clients can use the new sub claim format, or a combination of the sub and the subname claims.

About the subname Claim

The value of the subname claim matches the value of the sub claim used in versions of AM earlier than 7.1. It also matches the value of the sub claim if you disable the org.forgerock.security.oauth2.enforce.sub.claim.uniqueness property.

An example of the value of the subname claim is demo, or myOauth2Client.

AM adds this claim to access and ID tokens by default.

If you don’t want the subname claim added by default, disable the Include subname claim in tokens issued by the OAuth2 Provider property in the OAuth2 Provider service configuration.

Default: true for new installations, false for upgrades

Possible values are:

false.

The value of the sub claim is the username of the identity, or the name or the client that’s the subject of the token.

For example, demo, or myOauth2Client.
true.

The subject claim is in the format (type!subject), where:
- subject is the identifier of the user/identity, or the name of the OAuth 2.0/OpenID Connect client that is the subject of the token.
- type can be one of the following:
  - age. Specifies that the subject is an OAuth 2.0/OpenID Connect-related user-agent or client. For example, an OAuth 2.0 client, a Remote Consent Service agent, and a Web and Java Agent internal client.
  - usr. Specifies that the subject is a user/identity.

For example, (usr!demo), or (age!myOAuth2Client).

org.forgerock.services.cts.reaper.cache.pollFrequencyMilliseconds

How often to poll the reaper cache for tokens that have expired, and delete them.

By default, an AM instance will review its cache for tokens eligible for deletion every 100 milliseconds.

Default: 100 (milliseconds)

For more information, refer to Tune the CTS.]

org.forgerock.services.cts.reaper.cache.size

The number of records an AM instance will store in its CTS reaper cache.

Default: 500000

For more information, refer to Tune the CTS.

org.forgerock.services.cts.reaper.search.gracePeriodMilliseconds

Specifies a grace period used when searching for expired tokens. Any tokens that expired more than the specified duration ago are returned.

Default: 300000 (milliseconds)

For more information, refer to Tune the CTS.

org.forgerock.services.cts.reaper.search.pollFrequencyMilliseconds

How often to perform a search for expired tokens in the CTS persistence store.

Default: 5000 (milliseconds)

For more information, refer to Tune the CTS.

org.forgerock.services.cts.reaper.search.tokenLimit

The maximum number of expired tokens to return to the AM reaper when searching the CTS store.

Default: 5000

For more information, refer to Tune the CTS.

org.forgerock.services.cts.store.ttlsupport.enabled

Specifies whether AM support for the DS entry expiration and deletion feature is enabled. Enabling this setting causes AM to clone the value of the coreTokenExpirationDate attribute to the coreTokenTtlDate attribute during token creation, which allows DS to index tokens using the coreTokenTtlDate attribute for the entry expiration and deletion feature.

This property does not clone the values of tokens that were created before the setting was enabled.

Set this property to true in conjunction with the org.forgerock.services.cts.store.ttlsupport.exclusionlist advanced server property when you need to configure the AM reaper to manage the expiration time for a subset of the tokens in the CTS store only.

For more information, refer to Manage expired CTS tokens.

The JSON Web Token (JWT) Profile for OAuth 2.0 Client Authentication and Authorization Grants specification states that an authorization server may reject JWTs with an "exp" claim value that is unreasonably far in the future and an "iat" claim value that is unreasonably far in the past. This enforcement may be disabled, but should only be done if the security implications have been evaluated.

Default value: true

amster attribute: jwtTokenLifetimeValidationEnabled

JWT Unreasonable Lifetime (seconds)

Specify the lifetime (in seconds) of a JWT which should be considered unreasonable and rejected by validation.

The JSON Web Token (JWT) Profile for OAuth 2.0 Client Authentication and Authorization Grants specification states that an authorization server may reject JWTs with an "exp" claim value that is unreasonably far in the future and an "iat" claim value that is unreasonably far in the past. During token validation AM enforces that the token must expire within the specified duration and if the "iat" claim value is present, the token must not be older than the specified duration.

Default value: 86400

amster attribute: jwtTokenUnreasonableLifetime

JWT Required Claims

Specify a custom list of claims that will be treated as required during validation of an OAuth 2.0 authorization grant or client authentication JWT.

Use Policy Engine for Scope decisions

With this setting enabled, the policy engine is consulted for each scope value that is requested.

Scope decisions are made in the following way when based on the policy engine:

If a policy returns an action of GRANT=true, the scope is consented automatically, and the user is not consulted in a user-interaction flow.
If a policy returns an action of GRANT=false, the scope is not added to any resulting token, and the user will not see it in a user-interaction flow.
If no policy returns a value for the GRANT action:
- For user-facing grant types, such as the authorization or device code flows, the user is asked for consent or saved consent is used.
- For grant types that are not user-facing, such as those using password or client credentials, the scope is not added to any resulting token.

This setting can be overridden at the client level. See client profile configuration.

Default value: false

amster attribute: usePolicyEngineForScope

The identity Data Store attribute used to return modified timestamp values.

This attribute is paired together with the Created Timestamp Attribute Name attribute (createdTimestampAttribute). You can leave both attributes unset (default) or set them both. If you set only one attribute and leave the other blank, the access token fails with a 500 error.

For example, when you configure AM as an OIDC provider (OP) in a Mobile Connect application and use DS as an identity store, the client accesses the userinfo endpoint to obtain the updated_at claim value in the ID token. The updated_at claim gets its value from the modifiedTimestampAttribute attribute in the user profile. If the profile has never been modified the updated_at claim uses the createdTimestampAttribute attribute.

amster attribute: modifiedTimestampAttribute

Created Timestamp Attribute Name

The identity Data Store attribute used to return created timestamp values.

Trusted TLS Client Certificate Header

HTTP Header to receive TLS client certificates when TLS is terminated at a proxy.

Leave blank if not terminating TLS at a proxy. Ensure that the proxy is configured to strip this headerfrom incoming requests. Best practice is to use a random string.

amster attribute: tlsClientCertificateTrustedHeader

TLS Client Certificate Header Format

Format of the HTTP header used to communicate a client certificate from a reverse proxy.

The following formats are supported:

URLENCODED_PEM - a URL-encoded PEM format certificate. This is the format used by Nginx.
` X_FORWARDED_CLIENT_CERT` - the X-Forwarded-Client-Certformat used by Envoy and Istio.

The possible values for this property are:
URLENCODED_PEM
X_FORWARDED_CLIENT_CERT

Default value: URLENCODED_PEM
amster attribute: tlsClientCertificateHeaderFormat

Support TLS Certificate-Bound Access Tokens

Whether to bind access tokens to the client certificate when using TLS client certificate authentication.

Default value: true

amster attribute: tlsCertificateBoundAccessTokensEnabled

Check TLS Certificate Revocation Status

Whether to check if TLS client certificates have been revoked.

If enabled then AM will check if TLS client certificates used for client authentication have been revoked using either OCSP (preferred) or CRL. AM implements "soft fail" semantics: if the revocation status cannot be established due to a temporary error (e.g., network error) then the certificate is assumed to still be valid.

Default value: false

amster attribute: tlsCertificateRevocationCheckingEnabled

OCSP Responder URI

URI of the OCSP responder service to use for checking certificate revocation status.

If specified this value overrides any OCSP or CRL mechanisms specified in individual certificates.

amster attribute: tlsOcspResponderUri

OCSP Responder Certificate

PEM-encoded certificate to use to verify OCSP responses.

If specified this certificate will be used to verify the signature on all OCSP responses. Otherwise the appropriate certificate will be determined from the trusted CA certificates.

amster attribute: tlsOcspResponderCert

Macaroon Token Format

The possible values for this property are:

V1
V2

Default value: V2
amster attribute: macaroonTokenFormat

Require exp claim in Request Object

If enabled, the exp claim must be included in JWT request objects specified at /oauth2/authorize or /oauth2/par.

The exp (expiration time) claim defines the lifetime of the JWT, after which the JWT is no longer valid.

To comply with the FAPI security profile, this setting must be enabled.

Default value: false

amster attribute: expClaimRequiredInRequestObject

Require nbf claim in Request Object

If enabled, the nbf claim must be included in JWT request objects specified at /oauth2/authorize or /oauth2/par.

The nbf (not before) claim defines the earliest time that the JWT can be accepted for processing.

To comply with the FAPI security profile, this setting must be enabled.

Default value: false

amster attribute: nbfClaimRequiredInRequestObject

Max nbf and exp difference

The maximum permitted difference, in minutes, between the nbf and exp claims, as defined in the request object JWT.

A value of 0 indicates that there is no maximum time requirement.

If set to a value greater than 0, and either nbf or exp is not defined, the JWT is validated successfully, providing the claims are not required.

If set to a value greater than 0, and both claims are present, the JWT is validated accordingly, even when not required.

To comply with the FAPI security profile, this setting must be 60 (minutes) or less.

Default value: 0

amster attribute: maxDifferenceBetweenRequestObjectNbfAndExp

Max nbf age

The maximum permitted age, in minutes, of the nbf claim.

A value of 0 indicates that there is no maximum time requirement.

If set to a value greater than 0, and nbf is neither required nor specified, the JWT is validated successfully.

If set to a value greater than 0, and nbf is present, the JWT is validated accordingly, even when not required.

To comply with the FAPI security profile, this setting must be 60 (minutes) or less.

Default value: 0

amster attribute: maxAgeOfRequestObjectNbfClaim

Request Object Processing Specification

For OIDC requests only, this setting determines which specification is used to validate request object JWTs.

For example, the following OIDC request specifies a request object JWT and could be validated either according to the JAR specification, or as a standard OIDC request:

/authorize?client_id=myClient&request={JWT with scope=openid, response_type=id_token}

OAuth 2.0 requests that do not fall into this category, such as PAR or non-OIDC JWT requests, are processed according to the JAR specification, regardless of the value of this setting.

The possible values are:

OIDC - to adhere to the OIDC specification for JWT processing
JAR - to adhere to the JAR specification for JWT processing

This table summarizes the differences between the rules that need to be adhered to in each case.

Specification Rules
	OIDC specification	JAR specification
Request object	May be unsigned.	Must be JWS signed, and optionally, JWE encrypted.
Authorization request parameters	Assembles parameters from both the request object and the query parameters. If duplicates exist, the request object parameter takes precedence.	Assembles parameters from the request object ONLY. Duplicates that are defined as query parameters are ignored.
Required request parameters	`client_id` `response_type` `scope`, including `openid` scope value	`client_id` (must match the client ID specified in the request itself) `request` OR `request_uri`

Default value: OIDC

amster attribute: requestObjectProcessing

PAR Request URI Lifetime (seconds)

The length of time that the PAR Request URI is valid, in seconds.

It is strongly recommended to set this value to a short interval; for example, between 5 and 150 seconds. Setting this attribute to a higher value increases the load on the CTS, and may even result in denial of service if the requests are large and consume the available storage capacity.

For information about the PAR flow, refer to Authorization code grant with PAR.

Default value: 90

amster attribute: parRequestUriLifetime

Require Pushed Authorization Requests

If enabled, clients must use the PAR endpoint to initiate authorization requests, otherwise AM will throw an error indicating a missing or invalid request object.

This applies to all clients, including clients that are not configured to require PAR. See Advanced client properties for details.

Default value: false

amster attribute: requirePushedAuthorizationRequests

Refresh Token Grace Period (seconds)

The time, in seconds, that a refresh token can be reused. This grace period lets OAuth 2.0 clients recover seamlessly, if the response from an original refresh token request is not received, because of a network problem or other transient issue. During the grace period, the refresh token can be reused multiple times, if the network problem persists. When the grace period ends, the refresh token is revoked.

The refresh token grace period applies only to server-side tokens, in a one-to-one storage scheme.

Having a long grace period poses a security risk. You should therefore keep the grace period as small as possible. By default, the grace period cannot exceed 120 seconds. You can override this default maximum by setting the org.forgerock.openam.oauth2.client.graceperiod.disabled advanced server property. Note, however, that exceeding the default maximum of 120 seconds is not recommended.

There is no grace period by default, so the default value is 0.

Allow Client Credentials in Token Endpoint Query Parameters

When this setting is true, you can include client credentials in token endpoint requests as query parameters.

Default value: false

For security reasons, ForgeRock recommends you don’t change this setting.

amster attribute: allowClientCredentialsInTokenRequestQueryParameters

Include subname claim in tokens issued by the OAuth2 Provider: When this setting is true, AM adds the subname claim to access and ID tokens by default.

The value of the subname claim is the name of the token’s subject, for example, demo, or myOAuth2Client.

Default value: true

Client Dynamic Registration

The following settings appear on the Client Dynamic Registration tab:

Require Software Statement for Dynamic Client Registration: When enabled, a software statement JWT containing at least the iss (issuer) claim must be provided when registering an OAuth 2.0 client dynamically.

Default value: false

amster attribute: dynamicClientRegistrationSoftwareStatementRequired
Required Software Statement Attested Attributes: The client attributes that are required to be present in the software statement JWT when registering an OAuth 2.0 client dynamically. Only applies if Require Software Statements for Dynamic Client Registration is enabled.

Leave blank to allow any attributes to be present.

Default value: redirect_uris

amster attribute: requiredSoftwareStatementAttestedAttributes
Allow Open Dynamic Client Registration: Allow clients to register without an access token. If enabled, consider adding some form of rate limiting. For details, refer to Client Registration in the OIDC specification.

Default value: false

amster attribute: allowDynamicRegistration
Generate Registration Access Tokens: Whether to generate Registration Access Tokens for clients that register by using open dynamic client registration. Such tokens let the client access the Client Configuration Endpoint as per the OIDC specification. This setting has no effect if Allow Open Dynamic Client Registration is disabled.

Default value: true

amster attribute: generateRegistrationAccessTokens
Scope to give access to dynamic client registration: Mandatory scope required when registering a new OAuth2 client.

Default value: dynamic_client_registration

amster attribute: dynamicClientRegistrationScope

OpenID Connect

The following settings appear on the OpenID Connect tab:

Include all kty and alg combinations in jwks_uri

By default only distinct kid entries are returned in the jwks_uri and the alg property is not included. Enabling this flag will result in duplicate kid entries, each one specifying a different kty and alg combination (RFC7517 distinct key KIDs).

Default value: false

amster attribute: includeAllKtyAlgCombinationsInJwksUri

Use Force Authentication for prompt=login

If you specify the prompt=login parameter in the URL, AM forces the end user to authenticate even if they already have a valid session.

This property has slightly different behavior depending on whether you’re using trees or chains for authentication.

In both cases, the property is false by default.

Trees
Chains

If this property is false (the default), AM destroys the existing session and creates a new session after reauthentication.

If this property is true, AM performs a session upgrade on reauthentication.

If this property is false (the default), AM destroys the existing session and creates a new session after reauthentication.

If this property is true, AM returns the same session ID after reauthentication.

If you set this property to true, you must also set the org.forgerock.openam.authentication.forceAuth.enabled advanced server property to true; otherwise, your users can end up in an infinite login loop.

For security reasons, you should leave Use Force Authentication for prompt=login set to the default value (false) so that AM creates a new session when the user reauthenticates.

Use Force Authentication for max_age

This property applies only to reauthentication triggered by the Default Max Age property of an OAuth 2.0 client.

The property has slightly different behavior depending on whether you’re using trees or chains for authentication.

In both cases, the property is false by default.

Trees
Chains

If this property is false and the user requests authorization after the max_age has passed, AM destroys the existing session and creates a new session after reauthentication.

If this property is true and the user requests authorization after the max_age has passed, AM performs a session upgrade on reauthentication.

If this property is false and the user requests authorization after the max_age has passed, AM destroys the existing session and creates a new session after reauthentication.

If this property is true and the user requests authorization after the max_age has passed, AM returns the same session ID after reauthentication.

For security reasons, you should leave Use Force Authentication for max_age set to the default value (false), so that AM creates a new session when the user reauthenticates.

Listener Port

The UDP port on which each AM server will listen for RADIUS Access-Request packets

According to the RADIUS Authentication Specification, RFC 2865, the officially assigned port number for RADIUS is 1812. Specify a value from 1024 to 65535. All client requests are handled through the same port.

Default value: 1812

amster attribute: radiusServerPort

Thread Pool Core Size

When a RADIUS request is received and fewer than corePoolSize threads are running, a new thread is created to handle the request, even if other worker threads are idle. If there are more than "Thread Pool Core Size" but less than "Thread Pool Max Size" threads running, a new thread will be created only if the queue is full. By setting "Thread Pool Core Size" and "Thread Pool Max Size" to the same value, you create a fixed-size thread pool. Specify a value from 1 to 100.

Default value: 20

amster attribute: radiusThreadPoolQueueSize

Secondary configurations

This service has the following secondary configurations.

radiusClient

Client IP Address

The IP Address of the client.

Section 5.4 of the RADIUS Authentication Specification, RFC 2865, indicates that the source IP address of the Access-Request packet MUST be used to identify a configured client and hence determine the shared secret to use for decrypting the User-Password field.

This property should hold the source IP address of the client. This should match the value obtained from Java’s InetSocketAddress.getAddress().toString() function.

To verify the value, send an Access-Request packet to AM’s RADIUS port and watch for a message stating: "No Defined RADIUS Client matches IP address '/127.0.0.1'. Dropping request.". The value used in this property should match the IP address returned in the single quotes.

Default value: /127.0.0.1

amster attribute: clientIpAddress

Client Secret

This secret shared between server and client for encryption of the user password.

This secret must be conveyed to the RADIUS client and entered into its configuration before the User-Password field of incoming Access-Request packets can be decrypted to validate the password for the represented by that packet.

amster attribute: clientSecret

Log Packet Contents for this Client

Indicates if full packet contents should be dumped to the log.

When troubleshooting issues with RADIUS it is helpful to know what was received in a given packet. Enabling this feature will cause packet contents to be logged in a human consumable format. The only caveat is that the USER_PASSWORD field will be obfiscated by replacing with asterisks. This should only be enabled for troubleshooting as it adds significant content to logs and slows processing.

Default value: NO

amster attribute: clientPacketsLogged

Handler Class

The fully qualified name of a class to handle incoming RADIUS Access-Requests for this client.

This class must implement the com.sun.identity.authentication.modules.radius.server.spi.AccessRequestHandler interface to handle incoming Access-Request packets and provide a suitable response. An instance of this class is created when configuration is first loaded to validate the class and then once for each new request. The configuration properties will only be passed for the request handling instances and not when validating the class.

Default value: org.forgerock.openam.radius.server.spi.handlers.OpenAMAuthHandler

amster attribute: handlerClass

Handler Class Configuration Properties

Properties needed by the handler class for its configuration.

These properties are provided to the handler via its init method prior to the call to handle the request packet. If these values are changed the next handler instance created for an incoming request will receive the updated values. Each entry assumes that the first ‘`=`’ character incurred separates a key from its value. All entries are placed in a properties file handed to each handler instance.

Default value:

realm=/
chain=ldapService

amster attribute: handlerConfig

REST APIs

amster service name: RestApis

The following settings are available in this service:

Default Resource Version

Static generation only includes services and authentication modules that were present when AM was built. Note that dynamic documentation generation may not work in some application containers.

The possible values for this property are:

Label: Enabled with Dynamic Documentation (Value: DYNAMIC)
Label: Enabled with Static Documentation (Value: STATIC)
DISABLED

Default value: STATIC

amster attribute: descriptionsState

Default Protocol Version

The API protocol version to use when a REST request does not specify an explicit version. Choose from:

The possible values for this property are:

Oldest. If an explicit version is not specified, the oldest protocol version is used.
Latest. If an explicit version is not specified, the latest protocol version is used.
None. If an explicit version is not specified, the request will not be handled and an error status is returned.

Default value: Latest

amster attribute: defaultProtocolVersion

Enable CSRF Protection

If enabled, all non-read/query requests will require the X-Requested-With header to be present.

Requiring a non-standard header ensures requests can only be made via methods (XHR) that have stricter same-origin policy protections in Web browsers, preventing Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks. Without this filter, cross-origin requests are prevented by the use of the application/json Content-Type header, which is less robust.

Default value: true

amster attribute: csrfFilterEnabled

ssoadm attribute: languages
Default Script: The source code that is presented as the default when creating a new script of this type.

ssoadm attribute: defaultScript

Default Scripts

The default scripts for this secondary configuration.

Secondary Configurations

This service has the following secondary configurations.

engineConfiguration

The script engine configuration for scripts of this type.

ssoadm attribute: engineConfiguration

To access a secondary configuration instance using the ssoadm command, use: --subconfigname [primary configuration]/[secondary configuration]. For example:

$ ssoadm set-sub-cfg \
  --adminid uid=amAdmin,ou=People,dc=openam,dc=forgerock,dc=org \
  --password-file admin_pwd_file \
  --servicename ScriptingService \
  --subconfigname OIDC_CLAIMS/engineConfiguration \
  --operation set \
  --attributevalues maxThreads=300 queueSize=-1

Supports server-side scripts only. AM cannot configure engine settings for client-side scripts.

ssoadm attribute: `

Property Name Prefix

This prefix must match the property name prefix used in the script. For example, if the property name is custom.script.property, the prefix is custom.script.

ssoadm attribute: propertyNamePrefix

Server-side Script Timeout

The maximum execution time any individual script should take on the server (in seconds). AM terminates scripts which take longer to run than this value.

ssoadm attribute: serverTimeout

Core thread pool size

The initial number of threads in the thread pool from which scripts operate. AM will ensure the pool contains at least this many threads.

ssoadm attribute: coreThreads

Maximum thread pool size

The maximum number of threads in the thread pool from which scripts operate. If no free thread is available in the pool, AM creates new threads in the pool for script execution up to the configured maximum. It is recommended to set the maximum number of threads to 300.

ssoadm attribute: maxThreads

Thread pool queue size

The size of the queue to use for buffering requests for script execution when all core threads are in use. When the core thread pool is at capacity, new script execution requests are queued up to this limit.

For short, CPU-bound scripts, consider a small pool size and larger queue length. For I/O-bound scripts such as REST calls, consider a larger maximum pool size and a smaller queue.

Not hot-swappable: restart server for changes to take effect.

ssoadm attribute: queueSize

Thread idle timeout (seconds)

Length of time (in seconds) for a thread to be idle before AM terminates created threads. If the current pool size contains the number of threads set in Core thread pool size idle threads aren’t terminated, to maintain the initial pool size.

ssoadm attribute: idleTimeout

Java class allowlist

The list of class-name patterns allowed to be invoked by the script. Every class accessed by the script must match at least one of these patterns.

You can specify the class name as-is or use a regular expression.

This only applies to legacy scripts. You can’t add classes to the allowlist for a next-generation script.

ssoadm attribute: whiteList

Java class denylist

The list of class-name patterns that are NOT allowed to be invoked by the script. The denylist is applied AFTER the allowlist to exclude those classes. Access to a class specified in both the allowlist and the denylist will be denied.

You can specify the class name to exclude as-is or use a regular expression.

ssoadm attribute: blackList

Use system SecurityManager

If enabled, AM makes a call to System.getSecurityManager().checkPackageAccess(…) for each class that is accessed. The method throws SecurityException if the calling thread is not allowed to access the package.

This feature only takes effect if the security manager is enabled for the JVM.

ssoadm attribute: useSecurityManager

Session

amster service name: SessionUserService

General

The following settings appear on the General tab:

Latest Access Time Update Frequency: Defaults to 60 seconds. At most, AM updates a session’s latest access time this often.

Subsequent touches to the session that occur within the specified number of seconds after an update will not cause additional updates to the session’s access time.

Refreshing a session returns the idle time as the number of seconds since an update has occurred, which will be between 0 and the specified Latest Access Time Update Frequency.

Default value: 60

amster attribute: latestAccessTimeUpdateFrequency
DN Restriction Only Enabled: If enabled, AM will not perform DNS lookups when checking restrictions in cookie hijacking mode.

Default value: false

amster attribute: dnRestrictionOnly
Session Timeout Handler implementations: Lists plugin classes implementing session timeout handlers. Specify the fully qualified name.

amster attribute: timeoutHandlers

Enable Cross Upgrade Session Reference: If enabled, the AM session will contain an additional session reference property, the value of which is persisted across session upgrade.

To access the cross-upgrade session reference—for example, from within a script or when getting session information—allowlist the property XUSRef in the Session Property Whitelist service.

The session reference can be tracked in the audit logs for session creation and session upgrade events.

amster attribute: crossUpgradeReferenceFlag

This property only takes effect when the session quota constraint is enabled, and the session data store is unavailable.

The possible values for this property are:

YES
NO

Default value: NO

amster attribute: denyLoginWhenRepoDown

Client-side sessions

The following settings appear on the Client-Side Sessions tab:

Signing Algorithm Type

The algorithm that AM uses to sign the JSON Web Token (JWT) containing the session content. Signing the JWT enables tampering detection.

The possible values for this property are:

NONE
HS256. HMAC using SHA-256.
HS384. HMAC using SHA-384.
HS512. HMAC using SHA-512.
RS256. RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 using SHA-256.
ES256. ECDSA using SHA-256 and NIST standard P-256 elliptic curve.
ES384. ECDSA using SHA-384 and NIST standard P-384 elliptic curve.
ES512. ECDSA using SHA-512 and NIST standard P-521 elliptic curve.

Default value: HS256

amster attribute: statelessSigningType

Signing HMAC Shared Secret

Specifies the shared secret that AM uses when performing HMAC signing on the session JWT.

Specify a shared secret when using a "Signing Algorithm Type" of HS256, HS384, or HS512.

amster attribute: statelessSigningHmacSecret

Encryption Algorithm

Specifies the algorithm that AM uses to encrypt the JSON Web Token (JWT) containing the session content.

The possible values for this property are:

NONE. Session content is not encrypted.
RSA. Session content is encrypted with AES using a unique key. The key is then encrypted with an RSA public key and appended to the JWT.

AM supports the following padding modes, which you can set using the org.forgerock.openam.session.stateless.rsa.padding advanced property:
- RSA1_5. RSA with PKCS#1 v1.5 padding.
- RSA-OAEP. RSA with optimal asymmetric encryption padding (OAEP) and SHA-1.
- RSA-OAEP-256. RSA with OAEP padding and SHA-256.
AES_KEYWRAP. AES key wrapping.

Session content is encrypted with AES using a unique key and is then wrapped using AES KeyWrap and the master key. This provides additional security, compared to RSA, at the cost of 128 or 256 bits (or 32 bytes) depending on the size of the master key. This method provides authenticated encryption, which removes the need for a separate signature and decreases the byte size of the JWT. See RFC 3394.
DIRECT. Direct AES encryption.

Session content is encrypted with direct AES encryption, with a symmetric key. This method provides authenticated encryption, which removes the need for a separate signature and decreases the byte size of the JWT.

Users can accidentally disable all authentication by disabling signing and not using an authenticated encryption mode. To prevent this, set the org.forgerock.openam.session.stateless.signing.allownone system property to true to turn off signing completely.

Default value: DIRECT

amster attribute: statelessEncryptionType

Encryption Symmetric AES Key

AES key for use with Direct or AES KeyWrap encryption modes.

The symmetric AES key is a base64-encoded random key.

For direct encryption with AES-GCM or for AES-KeyWrap with any content encryption method, this should be 128, 192, or 256 bits.

For direct encryption with AES-CBC-HMAC, the key should be double those sizes (one half for the AES key, the other have for the HMAC key).

AES key sizes greater than 128 bits require installation of the JCE Unlimited Strength policy files in your JRE.

amster attribute: statelessEncryptionAesKey

Compression Algorithm

If enabled the session state is compressed before signing and encryption.

Enabling compression can compromise encryption. This may leak information about the content of the session state if encryption is enabled.

The possible values for this property are:

NONE
DEF. Deflate Compression.

Default value: NONE

amster attribute: statelessCompressionType

Enable Session Denylisting

Denylists client-side sessions that log out.

Enable this setting if the maximum session time is high. The denylist state is stored in the Core Token Service (CTS) token store until the session expires, to ensure that sessions cannot continue to be used.

Default value: false

amster attribute: openam-session-stateless-enable-session-blacklisting

Session Denylist Cache Size

Number of denylisted sessions to cache in memory to speed up denylist checks and reduce load on the CTS. The cache size should be approximately the number of logouts expected in the maximum session time.

Default value: 10000

amster attribute: openam-session-stateless-blacklist-cache-size

Denylist Poll Interval (seconds)

Specifies the interval at which AM polls the Core Token Service to update the list of logged out sessions, in seconds.

The longer the polling interval, the more time a malicious user has to connect to other AM servers in a deployment and make use of a stolen session cookie. Shortening the polling interval improves the security for logged out sessions, but might incur a minimal decrease in overall AM performance due to increased network activity. Set to 0 to disable this feature completely.

Default value: 60

amster attribute: openam-session-stateless-blacklist-poll-interval

Denylist Purge Delay (minutes)

When added to the maximum session time, specifies the amount of time that AM tracks logged out sessions.

Increase the denylist purge delay if you expect system clock skews in your deployment to be greater than one minute. You don’t need to increase the denylist purge delay for servers running a clock synchronization protocol, such as the Network Time Protocol.

Default value: 1

amster attribute: openam-session-stateless-blacklist-purge-delay

Enable Invalidation of Sessions Based on User Identifier: Let AM permit logging out all client-side sessions for a specific user, through the logoutByUser action.

Setting this to true causes AM to store logout user tokens in a local cache. For multi-server deployments, AM polls the CTS at a specified interval and populates the cache with the logout user tokens of all servers in the deployment.

Default value: false

amster attribute: statelessLogoutByUser
Invalidated Sessions Poll Interval (seconds): When Enable Invalidation of Sessions Based on User Identifier is true, this setting specifies the frequency at which AM polls the CTS for changes to persisted logout tokens.

Default value: 60

amster attribute: openam-session-stateless-logout-poll-interval

Dynamic attributes

Configuring any of the following properties at the realm level (Realms > Realm Name > Services > Session) causes the values to be stored in the identity store configured in that realm.

If you remove the identity store from the realm, the properties will use the values configured at the global level (Configure > Global Services > Session).

The following settings appear on the Dynamic Attributes tab:

Maximum Session Time

Maximum time a session can remain valid before AM requires the user to authenticate again, in minutes.

Grant RPTs…

In UMA, scope comes from both the permission ticket and from the token request. An RPT is always granted when all scopes match, and is never granted when no scope matches. You can configure when RPTs are granted for partial match conditions here. For more information, see Assessment and Results Determination in the UMA 2.0 Grant Specification.

Default value:

When the scope from the request is partially matched.
When none of the scope from the request is matched.
When the scope from the ticket is partially matched.

amster attribute: grantRptConditions

Username attribute

The name of the attribute whose value must be specified by end users when sharing resources. For example, if a user wants to share a resource with another user, based on that user’s email address, set this value to mail.

The attribute that you set here must contain unique values; otherwise, a resource share can grant access to multiple users unintentionally.

If you leave this attribute empty, UMA policies are based on the attribute that the underlying data store considers the username (for example, the LDAP user search attribute). This behavior is compatible with previous AM versions. The UMA Postman Collection sets this value to uid, which works in most deployments.

Changing this setting can invalidate existing UMA authorizations.

Default value: None

amster attribute: usernameAttribute

Ports used

The software uses a number of ports by default:

Default ports used
Port number	Protocol	Description
1689	TCP/IP	Port for Java Management extension (JMX) traffic, disabled by default.
1812	UDP	Port for AM’s RADIUS server, disabled by default.
4444	TCP/IP	Port for the embedded administration connector, enabled by default.
8080	TCP/IP	Web application container port number.
8082	TCP/IP	HTTP port for monitoring AM, disabled by default.
8085	TCP/IP	SNMP port for monitoring AM, disabled by default.
9999	TCP/IP	RMI port for monitoring AM, disabled by default.
50389, 50899, 58989	TCP/IP	Supports LDAP communication between embedded AM data stores.

Sometimes multiple services are configured on a single system with slightly different port numbers. For example, while the default port number for a servlet container, such as Tomcat, is 8080, a second instance of Tomcat might be configured with a port number of 18080. In all cases shown, communications proceed using the protocol shown in the table.

When you configure a firewall for AM, make sure to include open ports for any installed and related components, including web services (80, 443), servlet containers (8009, 8080, 8443), and external applications.

Additional ports may be used, depending on other components of your deployment. If you are using ForgeRock Directory Services, see Administrative access in the DS documentation, for the list of default ports used by DS.

Service endpoints

A service endpoint is an entry point to a web service. This page lists AM service endpoints that are accessible by default.

If you are certain that a particular AM service endpoint is not used in your deployment, you can block access to the endpoint.

For more information, see Secure network communication.

JSP files

Some AM JSP pages are directly accessible as service endpoints. The following sections describe the files for those JSP pages. Directory paths in this section are relative to AM’s deployment path, for example, /path/to/tomcat/webapps/openam/.

Top-level JSP files

You will find these files in the top-level directory of AM’s deployment path.

Logback.jsp: Provides a page to configure debug logging.

See Debug logging for details.
encode.jsp: Provides a page to encode a cleartext password for use in SAML entity configurations.
getServerInfo.jsp: Supports requests for server information. This page is used internally by AM.
isAlive.jsp: Displays a "Server is ALIVE" message when AM is ready to serve requests.
proxyidpfinder.jsp: Supports access to a remote identity provider through the federation broker.
services.jsp: Lists service configuration information. Use this page when translating configuration changes made in the console into corresponding ssoadm commands.
showServerConfig.jsp: Displays system configuration information, including the deployment URL, OS, Java VM, configuration directory, and more.
validat*.jsp pages: These files serve pages and provide endpoints for the classic, JATO-based UI when testing and verifying SAML v2.0 federation.

User interface JSP files

Some classic, JATO-based UI pages rely on JSP files in the com_sun_web_ui/jsp/ directory. They are not intended to be used directly as external endpoints.

Authentication JSP files

The JSP files in the config/auth/default*/ directories provide templates and endpoints to serve classic, JATO-based UI pages of the AM admin UI that allow users to authenticate.

To adapt the current UI for your deployment, see UI customization instead.

OAuth 2.0 JSP files

The JSP file, oauth2/registerClient.jsp, provides a template page to register an OAuth 2.0 client application without using the main console.

The JSP files in the oauth2c/ directory serve the Legacy OAuth 2.0/OpenID Connect authentication module. They are not intended to be used directly as external endpoints.

SAML v2.0 JSP files

The JSP files in the saml2/jsp/ directory provide endpoints used in SAML v2.0 deployments.

See Federate identities for descriptions of externally useful endpoints.

WS Federation JSP files

The JSP files in the wsfederation/jsp/ directory provide endpoints used in WS-Federation deployments.

WEB-INF URL patterns

The AM .war file includes a deployment descriptor file, WEB-INF/web.xml. The deployment descriptor lists services implemented as servlets, and <url-pattern> elements that map services to AM endpoints.

When protecting an AM server, consider blocking external access to unused services based on their URL patterns.

The web.xml file changes from release to release. If you remove endpoints from this file to disable access to parts of the AM configuration, make sure you review web.xml when you upgrade to a new release of AM. Remove the restricted endpoints and decide whether to disable the new endpoints.

For information about securing your deployment by restricting access to endpoints, refer to How do I remove admin UI access in AM and Best practice for blocking the top level realm in a proxy for AM.

Consume REST STS instances and Query, validate, and cancel tokens: How to use the AM REST APIs to manage AM’s Security Token Service, which lets you bridge identities across web and enterprise identity access management (IAM) systems through its token transformation process.

Well-known endpoints

The endpoints described in this section are Well-known URIs supported by AM:

/.well-known/openid-configuration: Exposes OpenID Provider configuration by HTTP GET as specified by OpenID Connect Discovery 1.0. No query string parameters are required.
/uma/.well-known/uma2-configuration: Exposes User-Managed Access (UMA) configuration by HTTP GET as specified by UMA Profile of OAuth 2.0. No query string parameters are required.

For an example, refer to /uma/.well-known/uma2-configuration.
/.well-known/webfinger: Lets a client retrieve the provider URL for an end user by HTTP GET as specified by OpenID Connect Discovery 1.0.

For an example, refer to OpenID Connect Discovery.

Log files and messages

This section describes log files and messages for the classic Logging Service, which is based on the Java SDK.

OpenAM 13.0.0 introduced a new REST-based Audit Logging Service, which is an audit logging framework common across all ForgeRock products.

The classic Logging Service will be deprecated in a future release.

Log files

This section describes the different classic Logging Service log files.

Audit log files

This section describes classic Logging Service audit log files:

Debug log files

Debug log files provide information to help troubleshoot problems.

The number of messages logged to the debug log files depends on the debug logging level. The default debug logging level is Error. Using other logging levels such as Warning or Message may increase the number of debug log messages and files.

When configured with the Message logging level, a server instance can produce more than a hundred debug log files. Use the debug log file names to determine the type of troubleshooting information in each file. For example, the command-line interface logs debug messages to the amCLI debug file. The OAuth2 provider logs debug messages to the OAuth2Provider debug file. The Naming Service logs messages to the amNaming debug file.
