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.

  1. In the left navigation pane, expand the Security folder.
  2. Select Admin.
  3. In the right administration pane, configure authentication and authorization by clicking the corresponding tab, and configuring properties of the providers you add as required.
    By default, authentication and authorization uses No Security. You can customize the security configuration by removing this provider and other types of providers.
  4. In each tab, remove the No Security modules:
    1. Click the box adjacent to the No Security module name.
    2. Click Delete.
  5. Configure the same LDAP provider that is used to authenticate and authorize Sybase Control Center administrative users. You can use a single provider can be used for both Sybase Control Center and Unwired Platform administrators.
    1. Click New.
    2. Select the provider.
    3. Set property values that are suitable for your security requirements.
    4. Click OK, to save the configuration locally.
  6. Click Save and restart Unwired Server to commit the changes.
