Chapter 5: Managing Profiles
Setting the Preferred Realm and Role
This section describes the JUAC tab in the Profile Properties dialog and how to
specify a preferred realm and roll for connecting to an Infranet Controller. Part of
connecting to an Infranet Controller might include specifying a realm and a role.
The realm identifies the network that you have been authenticated to access. The
role identifies the network resources that you are authorized to access. If you leave
these fields blank, the Infranet Controller might prompt you for a realm and a role
when you try to connect.
To set a preferred realm and role:
1. Open the JUAC tab in the Profile Properties dialog.
2. In the Realm field, specify the name of your preferred realm. If you do not
know the realms defined for you, see your network administrator.
3. In the Role field, specify the name of your preferred role. If you do not know
the roles defined for you, see your network administrator.
Having a preferred realm and role defined means that you do not have to re-specify
those values each time you connect to the same Infranet Controller.
Authenticating with Token Cards
If you use one or more token card authentication methods and then click Connect
to establish a network connection, an exchange of messages begins between OAC
and the token card authentication server. The message exchange, known as the
challenge-response dialog, takes place as the server prompts (challenges) the user to
enter private information (response). OAC presents one or more authentication
dialogs based on your state in the token card authentication server
challenge-response process.
If a service dialog appears, enter a valid PIN followed by the current sequence of
digits displayed on your hardware token card.
Under some circumstances, you might be required to provide a new PIN.
To enter a new PIN:
1. Enter a new 4–8 digit PIN and click OK.
Select Unmask
to see your PIN in clear text before you click OK.
2. Re-enter a new 4–8 digit PIN and click OK.
