AuthenticationDomain

Overview

Authentication domains provide logical groupings for resources and logins in a metadata repository. An individual uses the same user ID and password for all of the resources in a particular authentication domain. For example, when an application needs to locate credentials that enable a particular user to access a particular server, the application searches the metadata for logins that are associated with the authentication domain in which the target server is registered.

Security Inheritance and Enforcement Rules

The following is a list of associations which are used to determine if this object should inherit access controls from another object (inheritance) or if the association is allowed for the object (enforcement). For more information about inheritance and enforcement rules, see the SAS 9.2 Intelligence Platform: Security Administration Guide.
