Enabling Logins for Unwired Platform

Logins are configured differently for administrators and devices users. Sybase recommends that you keep the security configuration used by MBO packages separate from the “admin” configuration used by Unwired Platform administrators (platform administrators or domain administrators).

Therefore, determine your tenancy and domain strategy before configuring logins for administrators and users. With domains created, you can then easily assign security configurations or to the appropriate domain.

  1. Determining a Tenancy Strategy
    Determine how many domains to create and how to distribute domain components. A strategic multitenant structure for the cluster balances system-availability considerations with administrative concerns.
  2. Enabling Authentication and RBAC for Administrator Logins
    Role based access control (RBAC) for administrators is always performed by Unwired Server: Sybase Control Center automatically delegates administrator authentication to the providers configured for the "admin" security configuration on the "default" domain. When you install Unwired Platform, only the PreconfiguredUserLogin module is used, so you must initially log in with the administrator credentials defined with the installer.
  3. Enabling Authentication and RBAC for User Logins
    Enable authentication and role-based access control (RBAC) for device user logins by creating a new security configuration (that is, one that is distinct from the "admin" security configuration on the "default" domain), and mapping roles, then assigning it.
