RSA Authentication Manager 6.1 to 8.1 Migration Guide
top-level security domain
The top-level security domain is the first security domain in the security domain
hierarchy. The top-level security domain is unique in that it links to the identity source
or sources and manages the password, locking, and authentication policy for the entire
deployment.
Trace log
A persistable store for trace information.
trusted realm
A trusted realm is a realm that has a trust relationship with another realm. Users on a
trusted realm have permission to authenticate to another realm and access the
resources on that realm. Two or more realms can have a trust relationship. A trust
relationship can be either one-way or two-way.
trust package
An XML file that contains configuration information about the deployment.
UDP
See User Datagram Protocol.
User Datagram Protocol (UDP)
A protocol that allows programs on networked computers to communicate with one
another by sending short messages called datagrams.
User ID
A character string that the system uses to identify a user attempting to authenticate.
Typically a User ID is the user’s first initial followed by the last name. For example,
Jane Doe’s User ID might be jdoe.
virtual host
Physical computer on which a virtual machine is installed. A virtual host helps
manage traffic between web-based applications, web-tier deployments, and the
associated primary instance and replica instances.
virtual hostname
The publicly-accessible hostname. End users use this virtual hostname to authenticate
through the web tier. The system also generates SSL information based on the virtual
hostname. The virtual hostname must be same as the load balancer hostname.
web tier
A web tier is a platform for installing and deploying the Self-Service Console,
Dynamic Seed Provisioning, and the risk-based authentication (RBA) service in the
DMZ. The web tier prevents end users from accessing your private network by
receiving and managing inbound internet traffic before it enters your private network.
workflow
The movement of information or tasks through a work or business process. A
workflow can consist of one or two approval steps and a distribution step for different
requests from users.
workflow participant
Either approvers or distributors. Approvers review, approve, or defer user requests.
Distributors determine the distribution method for token requests and record the
method for each request. See also workflow.
