Use this page to define the login module for a Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) login configuration.
Specifies the class name of the given login module.
Data type: | String |
Specifies that the Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) loads the login module proxy class. JAAS then delegates calls to the login module classes that are defined in the Module class name field.
Use this option when you use both Version 5.x and Version 6 Application Servers in the same environment. If you migrate a Version 5.x Application Server to Version 6, WebSphere Application Server Version 6 automatically enables this option. If you have Version 6 only cells in your environment, you might choose to deselect this option.
Default: | Enabled |
Specifies the name of the proxy login module class.
The default login modules that are defined by the application server use the com.ibm.ws.security.common.auth.module.WSLoginModuleProxy proxy LoginModule class. This proxy class loads the application server login module with the thread context class loader and delegates all the operations to the real login module implementation. The real login module implementation is specified as the delegate option in the option configuration. The proxy class is needed because the Developer Kit application class loaders do not have visibility of the application server product class loaders.
Data type: | String |
Specifies the authentication behavior as authentication proceeds down the list of login modules.
A Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) authentication provider supplies the authentication strategy. In JAAS, an authentication strategy is implemented through the LoginModule interface.
Data type: | String |

Range: | Required, Requisite, Sufficient and Optional |
