Setting up Local User Management authentication in Remedy SSO

You can configure the Remedy SSO server to authenticate the Presentation Server users as local users. Remedy SSO provides you the facility to authenticate local users. A local user represents an individual user who accesses the protected application. The local users are assigned to groups (roles). Groups (roles) represents the groups or roles in your organization and is used to control user access. 

Perform the following tasks in Remedy SSO for enabling the user authentication:

• Add local users to the appropriate realm.
• Create the groups (roles) needed by your organization.
• Assign users to the appropriate groups (roles).
• Configure Remedy SSO to use local user management authentication.

The following topics help you to perform the above tasks in Remedy SSO and create an authorization profile in the TrueSight console:
