Table 10-2 Parameters for Deprecated Proxy Servlet
clientCertProxy
Specifies to trust client certificates in the
WL-Proxy-Client-Cert header.
Valid values are true and false. The default value is false.
This setting is useful if user authentication is performed on the
proxy server—setting
clientCertProxy to true causes the
proxy server to pass on the certs to the cluster in a special
header, WL-Proxy-Client-Cert.
The WL-Proxy-Client-Cert header can be used by any
client with direct access to WebLogic Server. WebLogic
Server takes the certificate information from that header,
trusting that is came from a secure source (the plug-in) and uses
that information to authenticate the user.
If you set
clientCertProxy to true, use a connection filter
to ensure that WebLogic Server accepts connections only from
the machine on which the plug-in is running. See "Filtering
Network Connections" in Programming WebLogic Security.
PathPrepend
String that the servlet prepends to the original URL, after
PathTrim is trimmed, before forwarding the URL to the
cluster.
