Security for Administration Users

Sybase Control Center requires its own set of security providers, which are distinct from those you must set up for Unwired Platform security. Typically, the only providers an administrator would configure for Sybase Control Center would be authentication and authorization.

1. Configuring a Security Provider for Sybase Control Center
   Once you have added required users to the repository used for Sybase Control Center authentication, you can use that directory to authenticate administration login requests.
2. Setting Up Provider Roles in Sybase Control Center
   Configure the security provider administration and user roles and passwords required for Sybase Control Center administrator login.
3. Setting Up the Admin Security Configuration
   Configure the admin security configuration to authenticate all administrator users. In the Developer Edition, the admin security configuration points to the OpenDS LDAP server and the default role mapping. To secure your Unwired Server infrastructure in the Deployment Edition, you must use Sybase Control Center to set the admin security configuration to point to your security repository server and configure the appropriate role mapping.
4. Mapping and Assigning Unwired Platform Default Roles
   Unwired Platform requires that you map these default platform roles: SUP Administrator, SUP Domain Administrator, and SUP DCN User. In a development environment, these mappings are automatic. In a production environment, use Sybase Control Center to map these logical roles to the appropriate physical roles or groups in the underlying security provider.
