Configuring after installation
When initially installed, BMC Atrium Single Sign-On is configured for immediate use. This default configuration uses the internal data store as an authentication source. This configuration is suitable for demonstrations, proof-of-concept deployments, testing, and other small deployment scenarios. However, for a large-scale system, you should configure the use of an external user repository for authentication, such as an LDAP server.
The following topics provide information and instructions associated with configuration methods used with BMC Atrium Single Sign-On:
To help with the configuration of BMC Atrium Single Sign-On, predefined authentication chains are provided using LDAP, RSA SecurID, and other methods. These predefined authentication chains allow you to:
- Configure an authentication module specifically for your deployment environment.
- Quickly configure your system.
- Create more complex chains by modifying the predefined chains.
In addition, new chains can be created if a complex authentication chain is needed. See Managing-authentication-modules and Managing authentication chains for more information.
